2007801 - The component field in request.cgi is empty unless action=queue is part of the URL

Attachment: patch, v1

If you reach request.cgi with no parameters, the component field is empty, because the selectProduct() method in js/productform.js removes all items on page load. No idea why (race condition?).
If you pass request.cgi?action=queue, then the components field is filled correctly and selectProduct() works correctly.

The only difference between both cases is that in the 2nd case, the list of products is passed by request.cgi instead of letting template/en/default/global/product-select.html.tmpl get the list itself. My patch fixes this.
