This is a possibility I think. As Oleg mentioned I don't think we want the connection to know about the method. We should be able to accomplish something like this in the HttpMethod though. This assumes that we can turn on/off the isStale test from outside the connection.
Couldn't you only pass on the knowledge that the request is idempotent, and then let the the isStale() check switch on this?
