[jcifs] Oh, those wacky plusses.

[Rob Wygand]

URLDecode the canonical path before invoking SmbURL.parseSmbURL? That 
doesn't seem right to me.... Rather, I think I'd need to URLEncode the 
biths between the slashes so that when SmbUrl parses it, it would 
properly decode from %xx notation into a +.

Am I missing something?
