Of course, accepts() is not ment to be called multiple times. The
reason it swallows is because it uses sessions to prevent double
submission. So basically calling form.accepts twice is like double
submitting the form from your controller.
To avoid protection against double submission, just call
``form.accepts(request.vars)`` without the session object.
