Authentication on a hook

Ok, I put some more energy into this (have to admit I wasn't thinking THAT hard) and got to the conclusion that the whole caching system is not entirely compatible with what you're trying to accomplish so that's where you should focus.

I think that in order to not to load the cache when post information is sent, the best solution is to extend the _display_cache method so you can check whether post information has been sent and if so, ignore the whole cache loading

system/application/libraries/MY_Cache.php

Code:

<?php
class MY_Cache extends Cache {
  function _display_cache(&$CFG, &$RTR) {
    if ( ! empty($_POST) ) { // Check if there is POST information
      return FALSE;
    } else {
      return parent::_display_cache($CFG,$RTR);
    }
  }
}
?>

If you do this, you should be able to fire your hook after the controller has been initialized
