It does (as per online docs, *cough*). Which is why you won't get the
serialized value for the radio button's name=, but the specific radio
button's value.
If you wish to get the serialized value for a given input's name, you'd
have to go something like this (admittedly heavyset):
$$('#yourForm *[name="yourName"]:checked').invoke('getValue').reduce()
This returns either undefined (if no such named item is checked) or the
value (if one is).

There you go.

No, F.E.S gets passed the DOM element itself, obtained by its id=.
Again, $F doesn't work on names, but ID's, as everything in Prototype
does. So your rewrite is essentially beside the point.
