How to deal with "invalid %-encoding" error in application for malformed uri
I would suggest to just ignore this error in your exception notifier instead.

of this issue, I built in a middleware which answers those requests with [400] bad request rather than raising an ArgumentError.
I put it into app/util and configured application.rb like that:
# catches 'invalid %-encoding' error
require "#{Rails.root}/app/util/exception_app"
config.middleware.insert_before Rack::Runtime, ExceptionApp::Middleware
Note: Rails 4.2+ raises an ActionController::BadRequest error instead of an ArgumentError.
