Thanks for the heads-up.  The followup search forms in the template files
already use get, so I've often thought the sample search.html should
also use get for consistency.  Get request also allow search logging
through the access_log files, if you don't want to use the logging
attribute and syslog logging, so there's reason 2.  This problem is an
even stronger reason.

Any objections to the change?
