with DOM, it's the fact that IE is very aggressive at caching.
You need to set the appropriate HTTP headers on the JSON, or just
add a random slug to the JSON URL.

From the sounds of that, using POST instead of GET would avoid the
issue. It appears MochiKit.Async uses GET to do its work. What
would be the downside of using POST instead?
That sounds absolutely terrible.
At least adding some random stuff to the URL doesn't change the
semantics, but it's not typically that hard to add a header or two on
the server side to remove the need for that.
