Comment Appreciate the irony (Score 2, Informative) 89
Nearly every highly-rated comment points the finger at "stupid" web designers rather than at Google, because GWA simply reveals that putting side effects on links is dangerous.
I hope you appreciate the irony of posting such comments on a site whose Logout link is implemented via a GET (see upper left of your screen.) That's the point: every site implements Logout as a link, and Google should have recognized this.
PS while I'm writing I might as well point out my previous GWA comment from a few days before this whole controversy. I was kinda hoping to shed some light on this exact problem. No one noticed, so I went and told 37signals what was going on ;)
