Better handling of pagination query string keeping about search HOT 3 CLOSED

Reclassifying as bug as the documented approach even breaks it all.
It currently would re-add the query string fields already present as POST which would always overwrite the other fields if coming after them (and the DOM is also invalid because the fields exist now twice).
We definitly need a better solution here.

Opting out should be the way to persist even across multiple search filters + paginators per single request (Cells, etc):

    foreach (\Cake\Utility\Hash::flatten($this->request->query) as $param => $value) {
        if (strpos($param, 'sort') !== false) { // This should respect the set scope, it's just meant as a POC
          echo $this->Form->hidden($param, compact('value'));
       }
    }

Does not work, it will always reset to the previous ones, not the changed ones. And it is invalid DOM content. I mentioned all that above already.
