As long as there is only one place I need to look for it, and as long
as finding that place, preferably in the first 1400-ish bytes, is cheap,
I'm happy.

As for separating out the query string, there may be sound security
in doing so, if we thereby can increase privacy for the query-string.

Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence.
