Using page to get form data broken in 2.7

[benjamin.lupu]

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.

Please share example Page Template and plugin code you are using so we can reproduce your issue.

99.99999% certain this is due to a redirect being enforced due to an inconsistent user_trailingslashit() pref.
