1.6.0: querystring.stringify does not work with number literals #1208
Description
Activity
this is bad.
@mscdex @trevnorris pinging you since this is because of 85a92a3
This seems like something that there should have been an existing test for.
Would this patch suffice?

@thedufer Alright,

Looks like we should use '' + v instead of the String constructor.
Seems reasonable.
However, this is dependent on the expectations of QueryString.escape. The docs indicate that it is exported solely for the purpose of allowing it to be overridden. So do we care that someone out there is probably using it (maybe on numbers) and this will still break their code? And second, we now pass strings to escape, even if a number was passed in to stringify - it's possible for someone to have overridden escape it in such a way that it operates on numbers differently from strings. Again, do we care that we've potentially broken their code?
Looks like all the current querystring test cases are strings: https://github.com/iojs/io.js/blob/v1.x/test/parallel/test-querystring.js
@Fishrock123 There doesn't seem to be a case where it passes a number. Try suggested test by @kenany above.
