SO SIMPLE CASE:  CLIENT POSTS WHICH UPDATES A USER
"FOO".  YOU
REDIRECT AFTER POST AND WANT TO DISPLAY 'USER
"FOO" WAS UPDATED' (OR
SOMETHING YOU NEED TO STORE SERVER-SIDE BETWEEN THE POST AND
THE
REDIRECT).

WHAT'S YOUR APPROACH?  ALWAYS PASS AROUND A SESSION ID IN
THE URL?
ON REDIRECTS PASS AN UNIQUE ID TO GET AT THAT
REQUEST-SPECIFIC
MESSAGE?

IF SO, HOW DO YOU MANAGE ORPHANS, SAY IF THE REDIRECT NEVER
HAPPENS?
