All I can say is that in my J2EE-days, I've happily moved to getParameters() on HttpServletRequest that always returned an array of strings - to have uniform parameter handling. The least I need TG2 to do is to have an easy way to configure a parameter to be a list. Silently swallowing anything but the first parameter I dislike as well, but if others have strong opinions on that I'm ok with it.
