      User is using graphite to render a dashboard of usage statistic.

      A Complex URL is required to render these images. Render succeeds in previous version of Confluence 3.5.x, but not in the latest. An example of one such complex url is below.

      http://graphs:81/render/?width=586&height=308&_salt=1348850407.992&target=xxx.xxxbldao850.stats.loadavg.15min&target=xxx.xxxbldao850.stats.loadavg.1min&target=xxx.xxxbldao850.stats.loadavg.5min

      When inserting an image with this URL the image renders correctly in preview mode, but when the image is saved the image does not render correctly.

      Supposition is that this might be do to the change in storage format.

            Confluence doesn't like single quotes either (') - I have to manually convert them to %27

            Maybe it doesn't like the colon char in the Google Image Charts linked above?

            I was linked to this issue from https://answers.atlassian.com/questions/146737/why-don-t-image-links-and-external-links-that-contain-an-asterisk-work?page=1#147621

            The problem that Confluence 4.3.2 was having with my graphite graphs was that Confluence doesn't seem to be able to deal with asterisks in a URL (even though the image preview function works). Converting asterisks to "%2a" works around the bug...

            The following sed will 'fix' the asterisks and output something that Confluence can deal with:
            echo '<URL>' | sed 's/*/%2a/g'
