Item13365: forcenewrevision checkbox is not working

The forcenewrevision checkbox is not working. It appears that it is submitted 3 times in the POST, so it's a multi_param, and ends up not being active.

Fails on both NatEdit, TinyMCE and the WikiText editor. With NatEdit and TinyMCE, forcenewrevision appears 3 times. With wikitext editor, only twice. But still a NOP. Here are the POST parameters from a wikitext edit session.

Looking at the page source, for a NatEdit session, it's there in 3 places.

<input type="hidden" name="forcenewrevision" value="" />
...
<li class="natEditForceNewRevision"><label for="forcenewrevision"><input type="checkbox" title="Creates a new topic revision when saving" id="forcenewrevision" name="forcenewrevision"  />Force new revision</label></li>
....
<input type="hidden" name="forcenewrevision" value="" />

Wow this was buggy for a long time in both natedit as well as plain pattern.
