I don't think so, because then this would also apply for normal GUI
interaction. The problem here is that you are inserting file names at a
level where these strings are not expected to still be (fully) encoded.
Naturally it will open/stream the file because the internal format still
requires decoding to find the file on disk which effectively tells you
that this step uses a standard urldecode() function rather than a
matching decoder for the stripped down version that creates the internal
format.
