20   * ValueParser is a base interface for classes that need to parse
21   * name/value Parameters, for example GET/POST data or Cookies
22   * (ParameterParser and CookieParser)
23   *
24   * <p>NOTE: The name= portion of a name=value pair may be converted
25   * to lowercase or uppercase when the object is initialized and when
26   * new data is added.  This behaviour is determined by the url.case.folding
27   * property in TurbineResources.properties.  Adding a name/value pair may
28   * overwrite existing name=value pairs if the names match:
