Encoding Arrays with File Paths

Hi all. 

I think I have uncovered an issue with encoding / decoding arrays where some array elements are file paths. I’m thinking that the forweard slashes are interfering with the decoding process. I think this because the arrayEncoded data has the actual paths still intact in the data stream. 

I can work around this by base64encoding / decoding any elements with file paths, but I want to make sure that the array encoding process does in fact have issues with certain characters, and if it does what are those characters? Is there a list of them? Can I delimit them?
