Comment (by dmsnell):

 My vote also goes against this proposal. It's still possible to support
 APIs like this (which are very non-standard) by creating a plugin for it.
 Opening this up in WordPress however would seem to do more to legitimize
 this behavior when it's very much at risk of breaking things for people in
 subtle and hard-to-debug ways (such as the mentioned issue with proxies
 stripping out this data) ''and'' it's very non-standard. Would not most
 people be very suspicious of an API that uses this means for passing data?
