How is 4 any different from saying "use HTTP caching"? (I might
missing the point here...)
The scenario is like this:
1. Script does a POST request to http://example.org/foo
2. Script does a POST request to http://example.org/foo
This results in the following:
1. UA does GET access request check to http://example.org/foo
2. UA does POST access request to http://example.org/foo
3. UA does GET access request check to http://example.org/foo
4. UA does POST access request to http://example.org/foo
The user agent does 3 because the HTTP cache for http://exmaple.org/foo is
invalidated at 2 (because of the POST). We want a way to override this for
access request checks so you don't have to an actual access request check
for each request to the same resource. This would allow:
1. UA does GET access request check to http://example.org/foo
2. UA does POST access request to http://example.org/foo
3. UA does POST access request to http://example.org/foo
My previous post illustrated some solutions to this problem.
