Description

Using the method
ContainerRequestParameter.getString(String encoding) does not decode the String.

When executing a sling page with the url:
standardportal.html?q=%C3%A4%C3%B6%C3%BC

then using
SlingHttpServletRequest.getParameter("q").getString("UTF-8")
is not returning äöü but äöü

but when doing the decode manually
new String(SlingHttpServletRequest.getParameter("q").getString().getBytes(),"UTF-8")
is returning äöü.
