load and submit

From time to time I find myself wishing I could submit an
instance to the server and have the result returned by 
the server opened in a new window.  This appears to be
a kind of cross between a submit and a load -- but the
only way I can see to achieve this is to pass the instance
data long as query parameters on a GET request, which
doesn't work very well for non-trivial instances.

Is there a way to achieve this behavior, or am I wishing
for the impossible?
