Not so. It's only "%...{format}t" that it doesn't understand.
"%...{format}i" is OK. I shall emphasise that in the next version of the
documentation.

Well, you answered it yourself. A single document that responds to both GET
and POST (or at least, which behaves differently in response to GET and
POST) is rare. And if it did, how would you report it differently? So analog
ignores this field for speed.
You can make out a much better case for treating HEAD differently, which
again it doesn't do.
