This of course also affects the import_request_variables() function.  For
example, if variables_order does not contain 'G' then this code:

  import_request_variables('GP', 'r_');

will not import GET-method data into $r_*

This should work as well.

Well, you still need to resolve precedence for $_REQUEST somehow.
