Thanks elf, but my question was more related to the formulation of the user
story.

I'd rather not discuss your particular profile (I think we have in the
past), it's a very complicated edge case using 303 redirects, and I have no
idea how to deal with it.  I dont think anyone else has successfully tried
what you want to do.  Please do feel you can experiment, I dont think it
should be the subject of standardization.

I am interested however in the general case, and the answer to this user
story.  I discussed with cwebber on irc and I think he's looking into it,
though quite sleep deprived at the moment.  I hope we can get the bottom of
following because the 3 systems do it in slightly different ways.  So if we
can find the common ground, hopefully that can bring us a step closer to
convergence.
