Problem Summary
- The plugin API only supports GET and POST. It would be desirable to support other methods defined in RFC 2616, such as DELETE, OPTIONS, and PUT, and also extension methods such as PROPFIND (WebDAV) or PATCH.
- HTTP request headers can only be set for POST (see NPN_PostURLNotify), but not for GET (NPN_GetURLNotify). This makes it hard to access content-negotiated resources.
