Comment:

 I just realized a very simple fix for this, and it's not dependent on
 transactions at all. All we have to do is listen for form `submit` events
 and if the form has a `GET` request method and if the `action` points to a
 URL for the current WP instance, then we can just `serialize` the form's
 data and amend it to the `action` URL and send this new URL in the `url`
 message to the Customizer pane, just as happens when clicking a regular
 link. See https://github.com/xwp/wp-customize-snapshots/pull/72/files
