I used to do that, but I've found that what I thought were style reasons
mostly turned out to be insufficiently flexible tooling reasons and I'm
finding one URI works pretty well under Cat.

Would you mind elaborating as to why you're keeping separate URIs? (rather
than one that behaves differently on GET vs. POST)

That's cuz we stole it lock, stock and barrel from rails which implemented
it for exactly that.

I'm not sure I've ever used ->flash myself :)
