The only way we can do this using a standard approach is to use a cookie
that we set that we look for to indicate stuff.

I'm still unclear exactly when we'd want this or how we know when we want
this. If we know it then the cookie technique will work. (If cookies are off
then lots of stuff won't work anyway.)
