I don't quite know what you mean by "trinkets".  The following is a slightly
cleaner cut at your code::

  <!-- items() returns a dic't key-value pairs -->
  <dtml-in "REQUEST.form.items()"> 
    <input type="hidden" name="&dtml-sequence-key;"
value="&dtml-sequence-item;">
  </dtml-in>

Are "trinkets" the ":list" style names, and the original, unmangled data?  I
don't think there is any easy way to get access to them inside the called form. 
Hmmm, I'll think on it.
