Lots of details at: http://www.stevesouders.com/blog/2011/06/27/unexpected-reloads-in-webkit/

This looks like at least one possible source of the behaviour:

void FrameLoader::load(DocumentLoader* newDocumentLoader)
{
    ResourceRequest& r = newDocumentLoader->request();
    addExtraFieldsToMainResourceRequest(r);
    FrameLoadType type;

    if (shouldTreatURLAsSameAsCurrent(newDocumentLoader->originalRequest().url())) {
        r.setCachePolicy(ReloadIgnoringCacheData);
        type = FrameLoadTypeSame;
    } else
        type = FrameLoadTypeStandard;
<..>
}
