You could use a session variable.
In this particular case, I would still use Response.Redirect as you want to
say to the browser to point to another location (with Server.Transfer the
browser will still show the "old" URL).
IMO, Server.Transfer is rather for those who have processing only pages. It
allows then to transfer the control to a processing only page easily server
side, before perhaps a final redirect to let the browser point to anotehr
final web page (rather than to have several redirects).

Yep,
I read the parameter with : string source = Request.Params["source"];
I don't want to use Response.Redirect() since it involves another
roundtrip. The interest of Server.Transfer() was that it happens entirely on the
server.
I'd really like to do this using Server.Transfer()

Should work!
How do you read the parameter?
string source = Request.Params["source"];
If not ok:
try
Response.Redirect(url);
instead of
Server.Transfer(url);
