PRG on WebWork, at last!

At last, a technique for supporting the post-redirect-get pattern on WebWork 2! I asked for it at some point, now there's hope that it will be added to the official WW releases.

The sad things?
  1. it took the ROR fanboys bragging about their "flash" scope to have one of the WW developers look at the problem
  2. all that activity on including AJAX support in WW2...
  3. this feature exists in Dynamo since ages (4.5.1, 7.2)
Conclusion? It was about friggin' time!
