Out of frustration, I decided to give 'mechanize' a try. It came as an
awesome surprise that mechanize implements the exact api of urllib2 -
meaning all I had to do was a query-replace of urllib2 to mechanize,
and lo-and-behold I got what I wanted!

Which is to say, the behaviour of mechanize matches Perl's
LWP::UserAgent as afar as handling of POST redirects go.
