Ok. How about we add a step 5 of the send() algorithm that states that
additional requirements in RFC 2616 are also to be taken into account.
That should effectively defer the issue to RFC 2616.
Does any currently released browse include the body when doing an XHR
GET request? If a big majority of them currently drop the body, then it
seems like it would help interoperability if the spec explicitly stated
that the body should be dropped.
IMHO this wouldn't be going against RFC 2616 as it's the application,
not the network layer, that drops the body.
