Or be proactive and ask what is the salary range the company plans for the position from the get-go. It's not a prisoners dilemma -- make your own proactive move and decision.

Technically, considering both a company and a candidate are in the same ballpark as to salary range, salary expectation is the only leverage a candidate has left for further negotiations. There is no reason to give away every single leverage. Everything else a candidate will provide during the interview process. Expected salary is the only thing left unknown to a recruiter.
