some link formats don't work as expected

I have posted this in the Talon Google+ Community, but maybe this is a better place. I have 2 issues with the otherwise great article browser (using it in Talon) Some links open the same article, where chrome does not. Example: http://speld.nl/?p=68521 and http://speld.nl/?p=68495 open both the article I first opened with the new article browser. So none of the above links are correctly opened.

second is, some cookiewalls can't be "taken". example link: s.ad.nl/4471885 is there a solution for this? Maybe direct these links to internal browser?

Some sites are not supported, it's impossible to predict the html format of every new source out there.

I understand. What are your thoughts about the first issue? These are articles and they render very nicely in the article browser. It just sees all these links as the same article?

The library strips out URL parameters because it helps with caching and finding the correct article. That is the first site I've ever seen that uses them to identify the article. This isn't something I see changing in the near future though.

Ok I see, thanks for your explanation.
