The fix should be added to libsoup, the patch is really small (see https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=523100#c28 for more details). I can talk with danw about that before pushing this upstream.

Actually the problem is not with the percent signs but with the blank spaces in the filename. Soup will always try to convert them into "%20" because otherwise is won't be a valid URL. So even if you encode them before passing the url to libsoup you'll be generating a different filename and thus the test will fail. I think the best I can do is to have a little chat about this issue with danw and try to get the libsoup patch upstream.
