    Description

      Switched from Qt5.0.2 to Qt5.1.0 and noticed that my application started opening incorrect URLs in a browser.

      Here is an example code:

      main.cpp
      #include <QApplication>
#include <QDesktopServices>
#include <QUrl>

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    QApplication a(argc, argv);

    QDesktopServices::openUrl(QUrl(QString("http://test.org/?/profile/5")));
    
    return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}

      When running it with Qt5.0.2, http://test.org/?/profile/5 opens, but when running with Qt5.1.0 http://test.org/?\profile\5 does.

      It's somehow related to the '?' character - removing it fixes the slashes.
