First of all, thanks for your rapid reply Mike.

Okay, I stopped posting mv_ip/mv_ib and I've interlaced a hidden input mv_sku 
with mv_order_item and mv_order_quantity now. 

The dump now shows:

{
'price_group' => '',
'mv_sku' => '01.01.8061.01.8-I00-XS-STL',
'mv_ib' => 'options',
'code' => '01.01.8061.01.8-I00-L-STL',
'gift_cert' => '',
'quantity' => '5'
},
{
'price_group' => '',
'mv_sku' => '01.01.8061.01.8-I00-XS-STL',
'mv_ib' => 'options',
'code' => '01.01.8061.01.8-I00-L-BDC',
'gift_cert' => '',
'quantity' => '4'
},
... *snipsnip* ...

Variable mv_ip no longer shows as part of the cart. mv_sku still has appended 
item options, although the posted mv_sku now shows as 

'mv_sku' => '01.01.8061.01.8-I00\001.01.8061.01.8-I00\0...'

Any ideas? 

Thanks a lot,
