In the test database, there is a concept "Accident & Emergency",
links to access this concept look like this:

<a href="/edit/concept.html?selected_concept=Accident &amp; Emergency;get_concept=1">Accident &amp; Emergency</a>

..which is valid, though this corresponds to a URL like this:

    http://pangloss.example.com/edit/concept.html?selected_concept=Accident%20&%20Emergency;get_concept=1

The parameters are interpreted like this:

   selected_concept = Accident%20
   %20Emergency =
   get_concept = 1

And the concept can't be found.
