I have needed that exact tool also. While decoding most HTML forms
manually, and ferreting out the params and syntax isn't usually
rocket science, it can sometimes be very time consuming. Also, there
is one form that was implemented (I won't say 'designed', lol)
so strangely that I could not decode it (neimanmarcus.com's
product search form) correctly.
Such a tool should also make it easy to support vanilla cookies.
I'd be interested in any news or progress on this issue.
