Variable $_PUT is already a popular name.
Many for yourself already so it was called, at the bottom link.
http://stackoverflow.com/search?q=PHP+%24_PUT
But I like the name $_DATA - it is universal for any request method.
For frontend developers, this name is very clear:
$.ajax({
type: "PUT",
contentType: "application/json",
data: {"name": "value"}
});
Except multipart form data, needed and native support for application/json.
In many languages (Java, Python, ASP), it has long been there.
It is a pity that the PHP in 2014, it has not yet implemented.
