Comment (by _ck_):

 scribu do you feel it's appropriate to attack me personally in trac when I
 am commenting on the approach and not any individual? If you feel this
 change was appropriate then defend the change, don't attack me.

 I don't claim to be an expert but that's my point - anyone with a base
 level of experience should have seen this is a bad move.

 Don't take my "opinion" on it, go ask on Stack Overflow for some
 independent feedback on the wisdom of changing a form (in a legacy
 environment no less) that passes up to several Kbytes of data from POST to
 GET.

 Let's forget about the security implications for a moment.

 There are browsers still used today that won't accept urls over 2000
 bytes.

 Some proxies won't accept urls over 255 characters.
