[bug-gs] Form fields inside PDFs removed when PDFs are merged

I don't pretend to be versed enough to label this a bug, feature request, or
pointless rambling.  

I have several PDFs that contain form fields (to be merged later with FDF
data on the client).  Currently using gswin32c 8.11.  If I merge the PDFs
through gswin32c, the form 'meta tags' (for lack of a better word?) inside
the PDFs are lost.  I don't see an applicable switch to prevent this, as I'm
just doing:
	gswin32c -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -dNOPAUSE -dQUIET -dBATCH
-sOutputFile=test.pdf file1.pdf file2.pdf

Is this something that has been requested/addressed in the past?  Please let
me more specific information is required.

TIA.
