You're not serious are you? do you want every single proxy
between you and the server getting their grubby little
mitts on all your session details, and logging it?
(And yes, some of the ISPs/companies use transparent proxies,
so you won't know if they do it...)
It also means you could bookmark right into the middle of a session
with various variables visible...
how about www.boi.ie/cgi?Session=blah&Transfer=40IEP&Account=56892034&Sort=894502
Argh..
