Yes, according to the HTML specs (written in the age of dinosaurs),  
only controls that are successful are sent as part of the form.  
Successful controls have name/value pairs. Unchecked checkboxes do  
not have a value so they cannot be successful. Since an empty string  
is still a value, the only other way to signify an unchecked checkbox  
is to just not submit it.
