You said: What about extending HTTP::Body, e.g. to decode JSON into body_params?

jshirley said: Ugh.  Also, what about (non-param-like) things like jpegs?

You said: Well, they'd be file uploads.

I said: You might like that, but you can't assume everyone would, and the
  request might not even have a form content-type.

You said: Well, they'd be file uploads.

Me, writing this message: ???

As far as I can tell, you missed the point of my message, which makes me wonder
if I've missed the point of yours.  Are you talking about a set of conventions
you'd like to be able to build for your own use on top of HTTP::Body, or a set
of conventions that you expect everyone will want and so should be built into
HTTP::Body, or something else entirely?
