Yea, I guess that is what I stumbled onto. I tried using null as a 
value, but it cause a JS error in IE (doesn't work).

It still sucks (for me) because I have to run a loop before and after 
the transform to add and remove the params. I would think the reset 
method would handle this, but it doesn't. I don't understand why the 
processor caches the parameter values in the first place.
