Where can I get this? Does Marshall intend to merge his work into cpp-netlib
or submit it directly to boost?

Yes, something in namespace `boost::network::http::forms` ?

This has been proposed before, but I don't think it's ever been

Boost.Serialization already defines base64 encoding/decoding functions, and
I would guess that the MIME implementation you mentioned above would too.

Cool.

Can you add them to the issue tracker, and maybe also to the wiki? This
way, anyone who is interested in participating can find something to do.
