The HTTP "HEAD" method really doesn't give you the semantics of what
you are trying to do.
"POST" would be better than "HEAD" IMO, since it conveys semantics
more closely to what we mean. However, I don't really like "POST"
since it allows for all kinds of "social hacking". IMO, using a new
HTTP method would probably be better. Maybe "PING".
Ian Hickson proposed to use POST. I agree with him. You want the WA 1.0 to
modify HTTP? That would be a 'me too' approach. Whenever you want
something just add a new HTTP method, whatever. WA 1.0 would force UAs to
use HTTP in a non-standard way.
I'd say keep it as it is.
