Actually, the sequence used as delimiter for CGI fields is "\t".
I think this is not the best choice, cause having a tabulation
into a field content is always possible (cut & paste, file upload...).
Why not allowing the user to choose the more appropriate
delimiter, through a ENV var ?
# delimiter = \0
PerlSetEnv EMBPERL_FIELDS_DELIMITER 0x00
# delimiter = HT
PerlSetEnv EMBPERL_FIELDS_DELIMITER 0x09
# delimiter = none : use array ref instead for multiple values
PerlSetEnv EMBPERL_FIELDS_DELIMITER ARRAY_REF
Of course, this delimiter would default to "\t", for backward
compatibility.
Is this relevant or not ?
