Nowhere is the behaviour defined for what happens if the methods are

support a couple of methods - that of silently transformed into GET, is
not much use, and I would say very wrong.
Please change it to throw an exception on open if you use a method
which is not defined, or alternatively provide a property which is the
actual method going to be used, preferably the exception.
I'd like to defer this until the whole method discussion has been sorted
out. Consider it noted though.
Currently the draft assumes that the only reason for not supporting a
method is because of security concerns in which case a SECURITY_ERR
exception must be raised. I suppose we can add the NOT_SUPPORTED_ERR as
well, but not supporting a header for other reasons than security doesn't
make much sense to me (given past discussions).
Sorry for the late response by the way...
