Only the server has the necessary information to determine whether the
redirect URL should have the query from the original URL, if any, or
not.  It could be that the query string determined the redirect, in
which case the redirect would probably not have the (same) query.  If,
however, the redirect is the same regardless of the query, then perhaps
the server needs to append the query to the redirect.  It should be up
to the server.  The client should use what the server gives it verbatim
(fragments are a separate issue which may change this).
