Documentation for Util.HrefEncode says "Since some characters are valid in URLs as delimiters, those characters are left alone", and includes ampersand as one of the characters left untouched. However, http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/#C_12 recommends that ampersands are actually encoded with the HTML entity (&ampWink. This is especially important in SVG as the interpreter rejects URLs containing raw ampersands.

If you want to encode all the characters in the URL, use Util.UrlEncode.  The ampersand (&) will be encoded as %26.
