'fields' won't be so pure once we start parsing both GET and POST values
rather than just one or the other.  And the same situation will arise:
whether to offer only merged values (and which to override), or only
separate values, or both.  I say we should offer both, so that those who
want to be lazy can be lazy, and those who want to recognize a value
only from a certain source can.
