I don't know of any way to force 302 Location to be followed with a POST, as far as I know all the browsers will issue a GET. Some browser will follow 307 with the same kind of request they issued at first, but in that case you won't be able to change the arguments.
The first two solutions that I can think of are: 1) Encode the dict with pickle and base64 and pass it as a get argument, users won't care much about a parameter they don't understand. Pay attention that this has a length limit. 2) Put the message inside the session and redirect without any argument.
