Hi everyone,
I was looking into https://github.com/rails/rails/issues/5688 while doing some weekend hacking.
I think I've got it fixed but can't figure out how to write a test for this, since any attempt to create a mock request with an invalid url like /foo/view/1234> is inadvertently caught by calls to URI.parse in test helpers. I've added a workaround for the calls to URI in ActionDispatch's integration.rb, but something similar happens again in rack-test's test.rb. Not being able to test drive this leaves me very uncomfortable.
I'm looking at the Rails codebase after a couple of years now, and much of it is new to me - any help would be appreciated. My fix as it stands is at https://github.com/c42engineering/rails/commit/95aad8f0da3cb940cff9ade4053e96fd14af0627
