#9140: Using page to get form data broken in 2.7

Priority: normal | Milestone: 2.8
Component: Template | Version: 2.7
Severity: major | Keywords: form,template,page,submit,custom
---------------------------+------------------------------------------------
Up to the 2.6.5, the following works :
- Use a page permalink as action for a form (eg. embedded into the sidebar
or in another page)
- $_POST catches form data without problem
- In order to do so, you have to create a page template for your theme
with the correct PHP code to get the data
The same procedure doesn't work anymore in the 2.7 (and the 2.7.1).
- $_POST is always empty
This feature is very handy to create simple forms (eg. contact form)
respecting Wordpress native mechanisms.
