Ask Bjoern, I privately replied to you on this as well.
I should have been more clear and said I was doing exactly this,
as per [1], when I mentioned I was converting POST requests to
GET requests.
This is so that I could get redirects to work in response to a
urlencoded POST request using the standard redirection technique
of setting the Location header and mime type and returning
REDIRECT instead of manually constructing and $r->print()ing a
header.
In any case, [1] does me no good with multipart/form-data which
is what I was asking about in the first place.
