[haXe] would Http class support multiple values for one parameter?

In CVS:

neko.Web.getParamValues(varName) : Array<String>

Handles array of values transmitted from HTML :

<form method="post" action="/foo">
   <input type="checkbox" name="items[]" value="123"/> I want this item
   <input type="checkbox" name="items[]" value="456"/> This one too
   <input type="submit" value="go"/>
</form>

In haxe, if both items checked :

neko.Web.getParamValues("items") = ["123","456"];

You can also specify array indexes for your values :

Email1 : <input type="text" name="emails[0]"/>
Email3 : <input type="text" name="emails[2]"/>
...

neko.Web.getParamValues("emails") = ["foo at foo.com", null, "bar at bar.com"]
