What I meant was that if you set the idx value to '' (ie if you "clear empty
inputs"), it will actually create an inconsistency in the form submission where
the idx param is *not* sent in the form submission but the q param *is* sent.
That is, unless you include an option in the select list for the idx that has a
value of ''. It seems like glitchy/unexpected browser behaviour (at least in
Chrome). 

But, as you say, removing the elements from the HTML form all together would
work.

Sounds all right to me. I already applied these patches locally about 6 months
ago, so I don't mind too much. Happy to help with Bug 7607 and then we can push
this one once that's sorted.
