StreamResult(File) writes to incorrect file path if # is part of the file path

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
StreamResult(File) writes to incorrect file path if # is part of the file path

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
See test case below.

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
Write file ./output/#/dom.xml
ACTUAL -
Write file ./output

CUSTOMER SUBMITTED WORKAROUND :
Use StreamResult(OutputStream) with standard FileOutputStream instead.
