title: Passing parameters using a Zend Framework redirect without appending to URL
body: <p>In our application, we have certain scenarios where we'd like to perform a redirect and pass a long string to the next controller/action. I'm familiar with both of these:</p>
  
  <pre><code>$this-&gt;_redirect('/controller/action?string=thisistheverylongstring);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But would like to avoid showing the user the string as part of the URL.</p>
  
  <p>Throwing the string in $this->view doesn't help because after a redirect, a new request is created.</p>
  
  <p>As far as I know, using $this->_helper->redirector() has the same problem.</p>
