Jenkins returns 400 when Catlight tries to fetch jobs tree

When Catlight tries to send "GET https://my-jenkins:11001/jenkins/api/json?tree=jobs[name,displayName,url,buildable,jobs[name,displayName,url..."  at the very begining of configuring a Jenkins connection, Jenkins reponds with 400 saying complaining about Invalid Characters in request. It seems that Catlight does not escape the query parameter "tree" properly. By issuing the same request manually with the query parameter encoded properly Jenkins responds with 200 and correct payload.

The extract from NetworkLog:
