If this surprises users, then they're not used to servlets.  This is the 
way it's been (unfriendly) forever and written in the spec.

If you want to use this for GET, I don't think any servlet engine or 
add-on is prepared for that.  You'll have to write your own code to 
handle retrieving the data from the querystring and passing it through a 
MIME parser.
