the HttpServletRequest object in VelocityServlet.doPost() does not  contain POSTed parameters

           Summary: the HttpServletRequest object in
                    VelocityServlet.doPost() does not  contain POSTed
                    parameters
           Product: Velocity
           Version: 1.4
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Major
          Priority: Other
         Component: Source
        AssignedTo: velocity-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: ivo@benetech.org


The HttpServletRequest object in VelocityServlet.doPost() does not contain
POSTed parameters if the form was submitted specifying an encoding type.

if the .html form has:

<form method="post" action="http://127.0.0.1">
...a bunch of <input> tags...
</form>

then in org.apache.velocity.servlet.VelocityServlet.doPost() you can do
request.getParameterNames() and all parameter names are retrieved, but if the 
.html form has:

<form method="post" action="http://127.0.0.1" enctype="multipart/form-data">
...a bunch of <input> tags...
</form>

then in org.apache.velocity.servlet.VelocityServlet.doPost() a call to
request.getParameterNames() returns null.

The problem happens much earlier really but this is the symptom I experience.
