Parsing post xml requests with no root node

When passing a post request using xml that has multiple root nodes, an error occurs in

actionpack-2.2.2\lib\action_controller\request.rb on line 513

In use, I am passing data from a flex app, using a content type of "application/xml", and post data of

loginvaluepasswordvalue

Because these values should be available as params[:login] and params[:value], I don't want to nest my data in another tag, so I am suggesting that line 513 of request.rb be changed:

• body.blank? ? {} : Hash.from_xml(body).with_indifferent_access
• body.blank? ? {} : (Hash.from_xml("#{body}").with_indifferent_access)[:root]
