You are correct, the request that is recorded in the outgoing
directory is the when you follow this refresh URL, but then you get a
page that redirects you to the original cached page.  This will mean
that cookies are not sent like you say.  I am not really very happy
with needing the special URLs for POST and PUT requests that pretend
to be on the same host, but it is the only solution that I could think
of.  For this special case it might also be that a special URL is
required that appears to be on the same host but which WWWOFFLE can
intercept.

You do have a refresh button on your browser that will do the right
thing and send the cookies, so all is not lost, you can refresh pages
with cookies.
