-.5. You are assuming that a bad HTTP cache will be bad in a predictable fashion. I'm not against using nonces to bust caches, but I don't think we should rely on it.

True, but is there really any disadvantage to using POST in the design?

My sense is that we will get less HTTP caching with POST than we would with GET-with-nonce, but I have no data to back that up.
