Description
Here at Scripps Publications we often get complaints from our sites that redirects do not pass the query string on to the redirected URI. I have looked at this code and except for ROM changes this code has remained the same since the 0.90 days. It seems that the Redirect model could have a Yes/No button to either tack on the query string or not. This would be a DB change and a code change, but not very difficult from my investigations.
I don't have a patch, but could probably work one up if you feel it is necessary.

Since the query string is included in the original URL (see #14153) when searching for a redirect, can't you just add the query string to the target URL?
Please reopen if I missed something.
