Comment (by hobarrera):

 My first thought would be to simply do something like (please take this
 more as pseudo-code than actual python):

 {{{
 if request.method not in ('GET', 'HEAD', 'OPTIONS', 'TRACE'):
     if passes_check():
         ok()
     elif request.method in ('PUT', 'POST', 'DELETE'):
         reject()
     else: # Unknown method that failed the check
         return 405 (or maybe 400?)
 }}}

 Would this be deemed acceptable?
