You're right. It turns out it's coming through as type=instance. If I just
do a str(param), it then works.

Any idea why this happens for this one particular case (param comes from
form button values) vs all the others (field entries)? Is this a bug (and if
so is it Microsoft, ActiveState, or Python?), or is there a subtle good
reason for it?
