Removing or renaming =24=5FGET and =24=5FPOST would also create confusion=
 and=C2=A0
almost certainly cause widespread BC breakage on a pretty massive scale.=C2=
=A0
And there's really no gain to offset that. So that just leaves us with=C2=
=A0
either continuing to have two REST methods but not the others or add a=C2=
=A0
=24=5FPUT and a =24=5FDELETE, even if they just alias to php://input agai=
n.=C2=A0


--Kris=C2=A0
How are these RESTful methods=3F =24=5FGET accepts query strings, that=E2=
=80=99s not part of the spec for RESTful GET requests unless I missed som=
ething. I also don=E2=80=99t see the worldwide breakage and confusion tha=
t would be caused - no one is proposing to drop =24=5FGET and =24=5FPOST =
but rather to create more semantic aliases for them.
