Well, if you don't mind following all the links via Google...

I think the potentially cleaner way would be to have an action that performs 
such a redirect. According to the Wikipedia page about "Referer", redirects 
should not propagate that header, so an action that performs a similar 
function to that Google service (but without Google soaking up all the data) 
would do the job just as well.

So you'd define some URL mappings pointing to the action using the above 
mechanism, and that would probably do what you want. Now you just have to 
write the action. ;-)
