I've exchanged a few emails with the author when I first started with
this problem -- before I realized the scope of it.  The problem is that
there is no one way to map the data for certain sets.  

For example: 
<select name="foo" multiple>
#some list of values
<select name="foo" multiple>
#some list of values

Even if the browsers report this data in order, there is no way to
determine which values go with which select box.  (unless you
distinguish the names by prepending/appending some value, in which case
H::FIF works perfectly.)

Granted, it can be made to work in all other cases.  I haven't gone in
to see what would be involved.
