Description

When using mapped properties (the ones backed by a HashMap in the ActionForm),
HashMap keys containing "." or "[" / "]" characters will result in an Exception on
submission of forms containing input elements with such keys.
Obviously these characters are mistaken for subproperty and array delimiters when the
RequestProcessor tries to populate the ActionForm.
