Just a note--I've been looking into this, and it seems the raw POST
values are not available after the page redirect. So I have hacked the
core just a bit to preserve those via session info. I've also
rewritten how the {?vars} are processed, so the POST values can be
available on the receiving page. Arrays will be displayed as a CSV
list, though the raw value is unchanged.
Let me know if this doesn't help with your situation. This appears to
implement #2 below and makes #4 below viable. Aiming for the best of
both worlds... While simultaneously trying to avoid wrecking
everything we've built up so far! There may be other ways to do this,
but it is the first that came to my mind...
Cheers,
