query_form also splits on ; without a way to override

There's a way to specify the delimiter when setting the query via query_form, but when you just want to return the parsed query via query_form, it splits on both [&;] without a way of overriding it. I have to manually parse the url myself to avoid splitting on ';'. I have encountered many sites where replacing ';' with '&' will result in an error.

Splitting on ";" is correct; it follows this W3C recommendation: http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/appendix/notes.html#h-B.2.2 However, for environments where this recommendation is not followed, it could be useful to specify a custom delimiter character or regexp.
