If the request method is post, it depends on the content-type.
When `application/x-www-urlencoded' (or alike), it is parsed
just like the query string.
When `multipart/form-data' (or alike), things get harder.
You'd best look at cgi.rb or some other parsing mechanism (for
example that one of PHP) to understand how to deal with the
boundaries.
