[TYPO3-mvc] Multiple parameters for one action!?

The GET/POST vars to action parameter mapping works only for objects or 
arrays and not for strings.
To get an string argument you have to fetch it by your own from the 
request object in your action method:
$keyword = '';
if ($this->request->hasArgument('keyword')) {
	$keyword = $this->request->getArgument('keyword');
}
