Please document this argument, including the "don't do a POST" value (-1).

(I'm not ecstatic about overloading the POST/Don't-POST signal on top of the
post id, but given our various constraints I think it makes sense.  If we had
DownloadRetrieveInfo, I'd want them separate.)

[cbentzel, 2012/02/02 19:53:06]

Agreed.

[cbentzel, 2012/02/03 15:54:47]

I documented this. I considered adding a constant to indicate "No post" but
couldn't find a great place to do it - plus it doesn't seem like there are many
constants used in content/public. 

[Randy Smith (Not in Mondays), 2012/02/03 19:43:06]

Yeah, I considered asking for a constant but had the same reaction :-}.
