You are right, of course. Shoud've realised that.

I thought about this option, but I'm hoping to avoid it somehow.

If by "parameters" you mean the <digest/>, I don't see how this could work. Since each session has its own ID, used at generating the digest. Or were you refering to other parameters?

That would be much to adventurous for me :)
