// ajaxSubmit
//   Submit a form through Ajax. Doesn't handle file uploads yet.
//
// Parameters:
//   form                 DOM element   The form to submit
//   button      optional DOM element   If set and a submit button of 'form', is added to the
//                                      form arguments sent
//   func        optional Function      Function to call once the call has been made or the
//                                      result has arrived, if want_result == true
//   want_result optional Boolean       If true, call func with the result of the submit once
//                                      it has arrived. Otherwise, call func as soon as the
//                                      submit request has been received by the server, and
//                                      ignore any result of the submit.
//
// Notes:
//   Func should be a function (request). If func is not defined,
//   ajaxSubmit just submits the form and ignores any result.
