Hidden inputs inside the management toolbar's search form

[4lejandrito]

The way forms were implemented before management toolbar was:

• Method: GET
• A bunch of input[type="hidden"] with every parameter.

After applying the management toolbar:

• Method: POST
• All the parameters are included in the action URL.

Now that the method is GET again (which is correct) search is broken everywhere. This is because when a form is GET it will replace all the parameters in the action URL with the form inputs (see a nice explanation here).

Now search will hit a URL like this: http://localhost:8080/group/guest/~/control_panel/manage?_com_liferay_document_library_web_portlet_DLAdminPortlet_keywords=blabla which only contains the keywords parameter and none of the original ones which are needed.

We need a way to add hidden inputs to the search form.
