Title: Message
A concrete suggestion follows:
The rationale is that POST data should be opaque to the Consumer. Hence,
I suggest that we do not require the Consumer to parse the POST data in any way.
Instead, the Consumer should pass an argument to the performInteraction
operation (and not to the getMarkup). The argument may be called payload. This
argument will contain the body of the HTTP request that comes from the browser
as-is, excluding the HTTP headers - this should take care of all form POST
scenarios, including document upload and general parameters.
With this thread of thought, requestParameters are not needed for form
POST. They may or may not be needed for form GET (which is a separate
issue).

This is not made clear. Two
suggestions I heard - uploadData and requestParameters. Both have their
problems. Maybe something more explicit?
