Oleg Kalnichevski commented on HTTPCLIENT-1828:
-----------------------------------------------
Gary,
As I have already said I was not going to stand in your way but at the very
least we need to explain why once of a sudden we treat DELETE and GET methods
differently even though their behavior with regards to request body enclosure
is absolutely the same (both based on RFC 2616 and RFC 723x). The library used
to have reasonable defaults and easy path for any willing to override the
default behavior and now it does not.

> HttpEntityEnclosingRequestBase instead of HttpRequestBase.
