This is common (client) reaction to a 302 response. Response codes 303
and 307 were invented to standardize the behavior of web browsers that
support such codes. Unfortunately, the fear of older browsers being used
has pretty much kept applications issuing 302 responses instead of the
(better, IMO) 303 and 307 response codes. So, the spec has improved but
the web hasn't so much. :(

Nice analysis of the response, André.
