re: POST with new result header vs. GET-with-body: I was more concerned about "upgraded client talking to upgraded server through non-upgraded proxy". All of the proxy servers would have to upgrade to support GET-with-body, then all of the clients, before any server could do it. "POST-with-annotation" would work with old proxies (the result header would pass through) and with old clients (yes, they'd warn if you hit 'reload', but the INITIAL transaction would work).
