GET and POST

Those demonstrations have to submit the cross-site requests as HTTP GET, because they're images and redirects (which happen automatically). But the requests being made are state-changing, so they should be POSTs (requiring user interaction). How would a check in the website's server-side form processing for GET vs POST (or for the HTTP referrer, for that matter) inconvenience the user?
