If you want to pass on the message maybe setFlash is the best option
(possibly with a custom key):

Although I don't see anything wrong with using your own session keys.
Either way, I'd stay away from URL parameters as they can be faked by
the end users, session vars are more reliable IMHO.
Hope that helps!
