> I'd like to have a possibility to send an HttpEntity regardless of method of 
> request.  The HTTP spec doesn't prohibit that (AFAIK, even GET requests with 
> body are allowed), and any spec-compliant implementation shouldn't do it 
> either.  I suggest merging HttpEntityEnclosingRequestBase with 
> HttpRequestBase, since there's really no reason to make this artifical 
> restriction.
