Comment (by Otto42):

 302 and 307 under HTTP 1.1 have the same basic effect, except that HTTP
 1.0 agents don't understand 307.

 I vote for just changing the text to "Found" and leaving it a 302 for now.
 In the future, when 1.0 agents go away, moving to a 307 would make sense.
 Trying to detect the version and sending a 302/307 could be done, but
 would make more sense if we abstracted out the HTTP version to some other
 functions or some such thing, since there are proxy issues that are also
 associated with sending 1.1 headers to 1.0 proxies.
