The last time I had to deal with this it was a result of links to a site from an email being attached to the user it was sent to (eg example.com/[email protected]). It was not a wonderful example, just a quick one. The moral being by caching query strings you risk needing to parse the ones being passed to ensure there in not unnecessary caching.

This use case seems abusive to me. I don't mind breaking abusive use cases.

Neither did XHTML.

Web Standards work requires you put up with a ton of really stupid things that people have been doing for a long time.

I don't mean abusive in the sense that it's using technology in a way it was not intended to be used. I mean abusive as in actively harmful to the user's interests and privacy.
