17661	Appending date & author based query vars to a permalink overrides the permalink	dd32		"Some canonical code branches are not properly accounting for extra query variables being specified via the url.

For example, these url's are not handled properly:
{{{
/2008/?author=1 redirects to /author/admin/
/author/admin/?year=2008 redirects to /year/2008/
/category/uncategorized/?year=2008 redirects to /2008/
}}}

This happens with most date based branches, as once a higher priority canonical rule is hit, the permalink component is ignored.

The canonical code includes a branch to add any ""forgotten"" `$_GET` variables back onto the url, however this doesn't help when it's the rewritten variables are being lost."	defect (bug)	new	normal	Future Release	Canonical	3.1	normal		needs-testing has-patch
