Since the big issue for deprecating GET was the fact it is not well suited for sending hierarchical data, how about this as a solution. 1. Do not deprecate GET. 2. Require your XML Instance Data to be flat when using GET. 3. Require your instance data to be flat when using application/x-www-form-urlencoded This will ensure that XForms supports GET the way GET was intended, and stops people from using a hammer to do the job of a screwdriver.
