Aah, right: multipart is only supported if the servlet has been marked
as such, and therefore the developer knows to expect large mounts of
data (and can configure such limits).

The wildcard is the "casual multipart parsing" which allows any
multipart request to be parsed without regard for such limits. Any
limits (data size) imposed on the connector will be used in those
cases, but "maximum number of parameters" is not one of them. I should
probably update the documentation for that feature to make a note of
this caveat.

Thanks,
