It's also inappropriate to require implementations not to send the body

Let me just recap the start of this thread:
Laurens Holst sent
<http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-webapi/2007Dec/0008.html>, which
raises the question of what the XHR spec should specify for cases when data is
passed to send(). In particular, it wants to explicitly specify the behavior.
I asked: "Is it conforming for a UA to drop the body for GET requests?" in the
context of this situation.
Bjoern Hoehrmann answered: "Not as far as I can tell."
That to me implies that the XHR spec is requiring the sending of entity-bodies
with GET requests. All I'm asking for is that the spec not make such a requirement.
