So, what would you use instead of redirects?  I have a number of idiomatic 
uses where they are treated as programmable, self-executing hyperlinks to 
transfer control from one object to another, dragging along parameters as 
I go.  So far it has been a reliable and robust mechanism, at least for 
me using the GET method.
