Beware that you should use uri-common's `uri-query' (not uri-generic's),
since intarweb's `request-uri' returns an uri-common object.

A few days ago I had a difficult bug to diagnose, which happened because I was trying to use uri-generic with uri-dispatch, instead of uri-common.

What is the purpose of uri-generic anyway?
