> FileURLConnection uses URLDecoder.decode() as part of its process for turning URL paths into filesystem paths.  However, this causes paths with '+' symbols to be incorrectly decoded; the '+' symbols are turned into spaces. (This is most relevant on mac os x, where the temp directory often contains plus symbols).
> This bug is basically identical to JBVFS-129, and I believe the fix is the same (use File's constructor taking a URI argument).  
> I'll attach a patch with a testcase and a patch with a potential fix.
