Perhaps we should reopen the discussion here. I am in favor of the approach
in favor, except for the stand on using 303 as a default value to all pages. 

A 303 status response is a very dangerous thing and could potentially harm
those who do not understand the use of it. A potential danger is described
(among other sources) here: http://sharkseo.com/nohat/303-redirects-seo/. 

Though I do agree that the ecommerce application is only 1 of many potential
uses of the OFBiz framework, i still disagree that it means that we can use
303 responses lightly. By setting a default value of 303 to all, we impose
it onto those who do not understand when it should be used, which are
probably most of the ofbiz users out there. The effects can be quite harmful
to them all... 

Instead I would argue that the default response should be 301 in all cases
and instead of using 303 we should opt for other means to prevent double
posting - wherever we see the necessity...
