Description

Migrated from #17 by @slowtokyo

I am having the issue as detailed in here: https://github.com/segmentio/analytics.js/issues/504 when I try to add a url parameter to a query string hubspot puts its queries in front of the existing queries thereby creating an invalid URL. I have found a way around this that doesn't impact my analytics, but shouldn't the Hubspot query strings be appended to the end of any existing query strings?

The URL I want to create:
https://foo.bar.co/#/register?__hstc=6222316.1d2b332e80357701bf2ef394e3a88e1b.1508536177681.1521725761504.1521729618139.158&__hssc=6222316.4.1521729618139&__hsfp=1692073022&plan=professional

The URL that I get:
https://foo.bar.co/?__hstc=6222316.1d2b332e80357701bf2ef394e3a88e1b.1508536177681.1521725761504.1521729618139.158&__hssc=6222316.11.1521729618139&__hsfp=1692073022#/register?plan=professional

Research direction

Start by locating the HubSpot integration code that constructs URLs and reproduce the behavior with the two example URLs in the issue. Done means existing query parameters remain associated with the route and HubSpot parameters are appended without producing an invalid URL.
