The name of a form element affects the data type? Doesn't some sort of
eval or ${} magic have to happen here? This is a little funky playing
around with bareword interpretation.
Is there some switch in the global configuration which turns this kind
of insanity off? I want my hash keys to be plain old strings, whether
they have square brackets in them or not.

Referring to Elijah's post, er email... I would expect that


<input name="data[test][]" value="index 0" />

  would yield a normal 1-dimensional array with an unfortunately named key

$_POST['data[test][]'] == "index 0"
