Summary: urllib.urlencode doesn't work for output from cgi.parse_qs

Initial Comment:
>>>
urllib.urlencode(cgi.parse_qsl('ext=.jpg&outquality=56'))
'ext=.jpg&outquality=56'
>>>
urllib.urlencode(cgi.parse_qs('ext=.jpg&outquality=56'))
'ext=%5B%27.jpg%27%5D&outquality=%5B%2756%27%5D'

"%5B%27" = "['"

As per the urlencode() API documentation, you are passing in 
sequences, so you need to set the doseq flag.

>>> urllib.urlencode(cgi.parse_qs
('ext=.jpg&outquality=56'),doseq=1)
'ext=.jpg&outquality=56'

I recommend that this bug report be closed as Invalid.
