On second thought, I'm not sure we should change the current behavior. Currently, request.vars.some_field and form.vars.some_field reflect the data returned by the form. If the same field name appears multiple times in the submitted form data, all the values go into a list -- otherwise, just a single value is associated with the field. request.vars and form.vars are not intended to replicate the data types of DAL database models, as not all forms are associated with DAL models. Anyway, if you want to pursue changing the current behavior, maybe open a discussion on the developers list, as this probably requires some thought (could break backward compatibility).
