So if this schema is widly used it is a flaw in web page if it accept important data as GET requests
Actions executed by GET requests just need to verify the referrer as well as the session cookie. Some users (mostly running opera) have disabled the sending of referrers, so if you want to accommodate them you'll need to use POSTs. Trusting GET requests without checking referrers is a recipe for disaster; google for friendster or orkut and "xss" to read stories about how to write shoddy web apps.
