> The Tapestry form component is currently only supporting the "POST" method.
> The POST method is usually associated with changing the "model" on the server side, e.g. in REST applications, POST indicates that a resource is modified, if I am not mistaken.
> The lack of GET support makes it necessary to use POST also for simple queries, such as a search field, where the model is not modified.
> This is a) semantically irritating, since for example a search query will not modify state and
> b) requires extra "work", for example a redirect-after-post, where it should not be necessary.
> Since Tapestry aspires to make the simple things easy, the difficult things possible, I think it should provide first-class support for the GET method.
