    You guessed correctly @atisne this is intentional to not break browsers or tools that needs to interact with it.

    The Content-Disposition header is a mess. Technically to support both something that works almost everywhere and supports modern tools we need to add a filename* section in the header. This is covered by RFC2231 and RFC5987.

    If this behavior intends to avoid encoding issues in HTTP headers, it's a bit radical.
    Even if all browsers don't manage encoding in HTTP headers in the same way, the best choice may be to implement the current RFC at the charge of browsers to be compliant with standard recommendations. It should not be worse than today.

    RFC 2183 [https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2183] says:
    "Parameter values longer than 78 characters, or which contain non-ASCII characters, MUST be encoded as specified in [RFC 2184]."
    RFC 2184 was obsoleted by RFC 2231[https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2231].
