If you do implement this, I think it might be easy to do as a pre-processor. That way it can add the params from the context vars before the request is sent.
So a RegEx post-processor would collect the vars, and then the pre-processor would plug em into the next request. I don't *need* this now, because my app is only going to have 10 rows max, so I can just build it to handle up to 10 rows statically. Otherwise, I'd build the pre-processor now. I bet it wouldn't be too hard. Rob > If it's any consolation, I'd be hard put to come up with a more useful > single improvement to JMeter right at this moment.
