The behaviour you describe seems to depend on the browser. FF is
reported to work, while Chromium doesn't. Probably this varies with the
versions.

If in the above URL you substitute + by %2B, it works. I'm not sure if
this is gitweb's fault. But gitweb could easily avoid this issue by not
using unescaped plus signs.
