87. -J/--remote-header-name doesn't decode %-encoded file names. RFC6266

  details how it should be done. The can of worm is basically that we have no

  charset handling in curl and ascii >=128 is a challenge for us. Not to

  mention that decoding also means that we need to check for nastyness that is

  attempted, like "../" sequences and the like. Probably everything to the left

  of any embedded slashes should be cut off.

There's no attempt to decode %-sequences (yet) in the provided file name, so

this option may provide you with rather unexpected file names.
