Funny how things escalate. Looks like someone turned this:

> Should we add some randomization to prevent abuse?

Into this:

http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2012-0840
http://secunia.com/advisories/47862
"The vulnerability is caused due to an error within a hash generation function 
when hashing form posts and updating a hash table. This can be exploited to 
cause a hash collision resulting in high CPU consumption via a specially 
crafted form sent in a HTTP POST request."

Reeeallly?? I guess I missed the part where any actual error or exploit was 
found...
