You may not consider this to be a bug, but I find it odd that, for instance, Perl can handle HTML posted 
multiple identical checkbox variable names, but PHP cannot without a workaround (for instance 
turning the checkbox variable into an array). Any chance of this getting fixed in the near future?

$_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"] and $_SERVER["HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA"] 
contain the raw GET and POST data, respectively.

I don't see why you consider adding [] to the input field 
name a workaround. I think it's a perfectly valid way to 
accomplish what you're doing.

This is a feature that is present in all other web languages.  Also changing the checkboxes to array's makes a mess of your javascript code.

It would just be simpler if it was implemented in the way that we developers naturally expect it to be.
