If not, use a more exotic field separator than '|'. This is really not a useful way to do fix this. All interfaces to gnatsd will have this problem. Rather, we need a way in Gnats to have it escape the field seperators.
Since basically any character(s) can be specified in the qfmt string, I am not certain that that is really necessary. I solved this problem in Gnatsweb by replacing |'s in the query format with character 037 (octal), which is the ASCII unit separator, and I think this should be a good solution for other clients as well..
