Description
You can see this live at http://www.rssmeme.com/.
Nearly every view has @vary_on_cookie on it the whole site is cached using CacheMiddleware with memcache. So when you first hit http://www.rssmeme.com/ you don't have a cookie set and get the cached version. Then when you click the link to set your preview type: http://rssmeme.com/set/preview/none/?next=/ I set a session variable with your preview type.
In Firefox and IE you are now being served uncached data because of the @vary_on_cookie decorator. Safari continues to serve up cached data though so it feels like clicking on the links does nothing; this sucks for my users.

Are you sure safari actually sent cookies ? If it works in IE AND Firefox it's likely a safari issue then. Closing until you can show us more.
No longer in use at http://www.rssmeme.com/ (switched to using low level caching to avoid this behavior) but it should still be considered.
