The time might come when we add some JSON specific command line options

HTTPie does not support multi-valued keys in query strings (sending several field[]= for example). It is very annoying and, for consistency, I would rather use cURL (instead of mixing syntax with HTTPie).

If I’m understanding your point correctly, HTTPie has support for multi-value keys in query strings.

You can use the `name==value` query parameter syntax [0]:

  $ http --offline pie.dev/get AAA==AAA AAA==BBB
  GET /get?AAA=AAA&AAA=BBB HTTP/1.1

Or simply:

  $ http --offline 'pie.dev/get?AAA=AAA&AAA=BBB'
  GET /get?AAA=AAA&AAA=BBB HTTP/1.1
