Visiting the URL does absolutely nothing, but I'd be pretty terrified if I ended up there by mistake. :) It's very misleading.
Is there any way to do this that works better? The result page needs to be dependent on the initial POST, but the re-POST dialog is kind of unpleasant. Especially if someone clicks confirm on it, they're an admin, and they originally specified to delete the target page -- although I haven't tested that, it sounds like it might be scary (unless only redirects are ever deleted on move, in which case the scenario is fairly unlikely). The only thing I can think of is using the database somehow, which seems like a bad idea.
Include pageid on the post form? Thus, if you resent it and it was recreated it would be a different one. Would only redo it if the moved page had been moved back to its original name.
