Well, the reason that this is done is to ensure unique names and to be
able to read the fields without some kind of mapping which would be
stored in a session or elsewhere. I *suppose* it could use an md5 but
that also seems like somewhat of a hack..... What server is this that
has this limitation? Is this a generic HTTP thing?
