Yes.

    (:pagelist ... request=0:)     # ignore form/url params
    (:pagelist ... request=1:)     # merge params from form/url

In the case of SiteMapsWithOptions, one would simply add
a request=1 parameter to the (:pagelist:) directive.

It might also be worthwhile to define a custom (:sitemap:)
directive that passes all of the appropriate options to
(:pagelist:) -- similar to the way (:searchresults:)
works.
