Relationship between collections

Observed behavior

Lets take a collection Tag which has only one field called name as a non empty string,
and a collection Article which has many Tag.
When trying to access all the Article records for a given Tag record, a request is made to our backend with the name value in the URL

Expected behavior

Any special character contained in the name value should be encoded as they end up in the URL of the GET request made to our backend:

http://[…]/admin/forest/tag/NAME_VALUE_HERE/relationships/article/count?[…]

Failure Logs

Currently, if any name value contains one of /\#%? it will not be encoded and will cause various URL interpretation issues like 404 with some / included as is.

I believe the URL building mechanism is set with IDs in mind, which usually don’t have any special character outside of -, but this particular collection has no ID in our system and this is intended.
