 New Comment:

If anyone care to implement decoding feature, please _never_ decode by default, since double(multiple) decoding is a cause of security issues.

Description:
------------
If you urlencode a character in a URL than the parsed version of that URL ought to contain that character urldecoded in the output.

Test script:
---------------
<?php
$a = parse_url('https://www.google.com/se%61rch?q=test');

print_r($a);

Expected result:
----------------
Array
(
    [scheme] => https
    [host] => www.google.com
    [path] => /search
    [query] => q=test
)

Actual result:
--------------
Array
(
    [scheme] => https
    [host] => www.google.com
    [path] => /se%61rch
    [query] => q=test
)
