How to parse query string or query params of a Request object?

[postmodern]

I just noticed that the query portion (ex: ?q=1) of the request URI is not separated from the request path (ex: /foo). Instead Request#path includes both the path and query string (ex: /foo?q=1). Is this intentional? Is there some kind of method I didn't notice which parses the request URI into path and query parts?

I did not want to mix URL specifications with HTTP specifications, however there is some support for it in the protocol-http gem. Probably we should make a more extensive gem for this - e.g. parsing out form data and so on.

I know this isn't probably the answer you were looking for, but URL parsing (and caching, and form data) is a Pandora's box I didn't want to open in the core interfaces for request/response, at least not until I had a good idea of how to do it correctly.

For my use case, I can parse the request URI path using Protocol::HTTP::Reference and Protocol::HTTP::URL and initialize my own Request object. It would be nice if async-http had an API similar to Rack::Request.
