Nice, not having bodies on GET has been a pet peeve of mine for a long time. It would be nice to allow bodies on DELETE as well, but that is less of a problem in most cases. | ||

DELETE is idempotent, so I am not sure what the body would do? | ||

If you're doing anything complicated enough to need so much data that it'd be better to send the data in a body, it's probably not a DELETE and so POST would be more appropriate anyway. DELETE is intended to delete one specific object, pointed to by a unique URL, not to delete arbitrary objects matching some criteria. | ||
