I wouldn't think that it's related to utf-8 (but it might be).

Technically I think that & is still correct in a html-encoded
url, since & is in fact an ampersand.  But I can believe that
there are some browsers that don't understand it.

Is there a page where I can see this actually happening?  Either
on your site, or perhaps you could create an example in the Test
or UTF8 groups on pmwiki.org?  (UTF8 has the utf-8 script enabled.)
