Add ability so send arbitrary params on track('...')

[arikon]

Yandex.Metrica supports urls with arbitrary params, and allows filtering by them. I think GA should also support this.

We could add support of sending such params to the tracking service.

Example:

var insight = Insight( ... );
insight.track('path', 'to', 'page', {
    param1: 'value',
    param2: 'value'
});

This should transform to the following path:

/path/to/page?param1=value&param2=value

What do you think of it?

@sindresorhus Sorry guys, no time for this now =(
Shall I close or we could leave it for now as is?

[sindresorhus]

leave it

Is the point of this to track custom events / funnels? Would custom dimensions & metrics suffice?

e.g. to track OS type

ga('set', {
  'dimension5': 'OSX'
});

@arikon ?

@sindresorhus Still have no time for this. Feel free to close it if needed.

[sindresorhus]

@arikon the ? was to the above question, not to implement this.

[arikon]

@sindresorhus Oh, I see now =)

@rayshan The point is to track any useful data and generate reports with it. I think custom dimensions & metrics of GA will suffice.
