> Currently, redirections are limited to 'verbs with no content':
>  * [List of verbs with no content|https://github.com/apache/cxf/blob/4e110842a36ac1923870df2c4b9f1a3266dfbc80/rt/transports/http/src/main/java/org/apache/cxf/transport/http/HTTPConduit.java#L202]
>  * [Limitation for redirections|https://github.com/apache/cxf/blob/4e110842a36ac1923870df2c4b9f1a3266dfbc80/rt/transports/http/src/main/java/org/apache/cxf/transport/http/HTTPConduit.java#L1432]
> In [HTTP/1.1 specification|https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc7231.html] it is written that automatic redirection need to be done with care for methods not known to be safe:
> !image-2022-08-18-10-57-24-093.png|width=477,height=122!
> The safe methods are GET, HEAD, OPTIONS, and TRACE, those listed in [list of verbs with no content|https://github.com/apache/cxf/blob/4e110842a36ac1923870df2c4b9f1a3266dfbc80/rt/transports/http/src/main/java/org/apache/cxf/transport/http/HTTPConduit.java#L202] .
> !image-2022-08-18-10-57-00-592.png|width=394,height=302!
> Although the specification tells to do redirection of not safe method with care, it doesn't forbid it. Currently, it is not possible to do redirection of a POST method with CXF.
>  
> Maybe it could be acceptable to configure the list of redirected verbs ?
