mde/geddy — Issue #84: Static file router: url decoding

I have a large number of static files (jpegs), many of which have punctuation and whitespace in their filenames. I dropped them into the public folder and expected them to be able to pull them up at http://localhost:4000/foo/bar%20baz.jpg Instead, I find a 404 at that address.

I tried renaming my static files to have %20 literally in their filenames instead of spaces. That makes it work, so it looks to me like (at least) the space character is not getting decoded from the url when the static file server goes looking for the files. I'm new to Node and Geddy, I apologize if this is a known/non issue.
