I actually just worked around this issue in my library to do specifically what I needed it to do, which was an automatic redirect POST with data. As far as general recipes are concerned, anyone could just follow what I did in my library at:
https://github.com/crustymonkey/py-sonic or
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/py-sonic
All I did was just subclass HTTPRedirectHandler and essentially add my patch.
