Editor: Fields containing empty arrays are not sent with the rest of the edited record AJAX data

I've just noticed this behaviour. If I hook into the Editor preSubmit event I can see that the data parameter object contains the key for such a field with the value of empty array. However, the key is missing from the data in the $_REQUEST. It would seem surprising if this were expected behaviour, as empty strings are sent just fine. Or maybe I'm missing something obvious.

Thanks! Rob Campbell

    I agree - that is unexpected. preSubmit should be passed the data that is submitted to the server. Could you give me a link to your page so I can take a look please?

    Also worth updating to 1.9.0 which is the current release.
