Jean-Philippe,
Nice idea! I suggest that you add the following methods to TunnelService:
*
isHeaderTunnel() : boolean
*
setHeaderTunnel(boolean)
Then, if both the "methodTunnel" and the "headerTunnel" are 'true', then you
should look for the "X-HTTP-Method-Override" extension
header.
If also need to be careful about priority between tunnelling mechanisms. If
both the extension header and the 'method' query
parameters are specified, then the query parameter should 'win'.
Best regards,
Jerome Louvel

Excellent. The current workaround should work just nicely for now. I would be
more than happy to implement the header override
feature if no one else is currently working on it.

Hi Jean-Philippe,
In addition to the current workaround described by Karel, we are planning to
support the "X-HTTP-Method-Override" header in Restlet
1.2:
"Support method tunneling via header"

Just scanning your mail diagonally I think you need to add the method
parameter to your query string (in combination with POST requests):
http://host/path?method=PUT
http://host/path?method=DELETE
(You should have the tunnel service enabled)
HTH,
