Comment:
This is an interesting discrepancy.
I'm inclined to agree with your analysis - my_dict.update(request.POST)
should only update values - but it's out of our hands. The python
internals dictate the behavior in this case.
Your workaround seems reasonable - i.e., add a dict() method to QueryDict
(strictly, to MultiValueDict) that provides a dictionary of key-value
pairs, rather than key-list pairs.
