Hi
Sorry if this is too off topic but I can't think of anywhere else to
ask. Plus the system in question is a Catalyst app ;-)
Can an HTTP DELETE have an entity body? I have looked in the HTTP
spec and as far as I can see it doesn't say.
The use case is when someone deletes a resource they want to be able
to specify the reason why they deleted it. If it's legal for a DELETE
to have a body they could put the reason in there. If not, is it a
reasonable use of a custom header?
Thanks
Jonathan
