I'd like to be able to say:
<a href="foo.html?bar=1&[$ hidden $]">go there</a>
In a URL context it should result in a set of appropriate & separated
arguments with the fields that aren't currently represented in the
URL. That requires a bit of URL parsing, but it wouldn't have to be
done unless there was a hidden clause in the URL, so the performance
hit shouldn't be big.
If you want a specific example. I'm building a calendar package, and
one piece is a little calendar image, where each day is a link. It's
easy enough to make each link be of the form
"?day=1&month=10&year=2000" and that works fine, until you decide to
add something like searching. Then I'll need to preserve the search
terms across browsing the calendar, so now I need to change all the
links to "?day=1&month=10&year=2000&search=[+$fdat{search}+]". And
then of course some other argument gets added, and I need to add that
to the links... and so on.
So what I'd really like is for [$ hidden $] in a URL context to
expand to all the CGI arguments that don't currently exist in the
URL, but that are in %fdat.

I'm not sure which upsets me more: that people are so unwilling to accept
responsibility for their own actions, or that they are so eager to regulate
everyone else's.
