Bug Description

When trying to make changes to items using post-bibliofetch in Mode 3 (roll your own), wonderfetch values (w_language, etc) are not accepted via URL.

Example: http://yaz.us.archive.org/biblio.php?w_wonderfetch=1&f=un_biblio&b_l=Clemson%20University%20Libraries&b_c1=clemson&b_c2=americana&b_n=nj&b_p=Lyrasis%20Members%20and%20Sloan%20Foundation&b_v=1965&pcs=Copyright%20of%20Clemson%20University.%20Use%20of%20materials%20from%20this%20collection%20beyond%20the%20exceptions%20provided%20for%20in%20the%20Fair%20Use%20and%20Educational%20Use%20clauses%20of%20the%20U.S.%20Copyright%20Law%20may%20violate%20federal%20law.%20Permission%20to%20publish%20or%20reproduce%20is%20required.&lic=&rights=&dd=&b_rtl=&b_plt=&w_title=Taps&w_language=eng&add=1&w_subject=Clemson%20University--Students--Yearbooks;%20Clemson%20Agricultural%20College%20of%20South%20Carolina--Students--Yearbooks.&w_date=1965&w_publisher=Clemson%20University&w_description=%20%22Annual%20publication%20of%20Clemson%20University%22;%20June%201899%20and%201900%20issues%20of%20Clemson%20College%20Chronicle%20began%20the%20series%20of%20Clemson%20University%20yearbooks%20followed%20by%20the%20Clemsonian%20in%201901;%20%20the%20May%20issue%20of%20Clemson%20College%20Chronicle%20in%201902;%20the%20Oconeean%20in%201903-1904;%20the%20May%20issue%20of%20the%20Chronicle%20in%201905;%20the%20Clemson%20College%20annual%20in%201906-1907;%20beginning%20in%201908%20to%20the%20present,%20as%20Taps;%20no%20issues%20published%20from%201944-1946,%20information%20about%20graduates,%20etc.%20were%20published%20in%201947;%20subtitle%20varies.&w_creator=Clemson%20University&b_c3=X0000&b_cl=&b_sf=&b_id=taps1965clem&c[0]=call_number&v[0]=LD1087%20.T1

If we could fix this, we would be closer to a new version of Wonderfetch that could eliminate bad tasks being submitted by people using Mode4 (need to look at any possible issues caused by using post-biblio-fetch on derived items).

The following are the fields that are not yet properly dealt with by post-biblio fetch (as best I recall, anyway; I know these are the affected fields, but my notes were vague on exactly what goes wrong with each of them):

noindex gets unconditionally set to true

uploader gets set to the submitter of the post-biblio, in place of the original loader

identifier-access gets wiped

description gets set to the description fields (datafields 5xx) in the new record, which is correct *if* description had contained only what was in the old 5xx fields, but sometimes additional, non-MARC-derived, info is in the description field that should be kept, along with the new 5xx fields

We should also confirm that the Wonderfetch fields carry though in Mode1
and Mode2, and the custom pairs as well.

I'm seeing issues where, using post-bibliofetch, previously filled fields in meta.xml are not carrying over to the new form.

When I get to SF and take over as process manager, I'd like to get a new version of Wonderfetch out to resolve and simplify a lot of issues. Assigning this to myself to be dealt with when I get out there in about a month.
