 I am using a RESTful API in my django server with CSRF Middleware enabled.
 When I only use GET and POST requests, all works as expected. But when I
 send a DELETE request to a resource and afterwards perform a POST request
 – that contains a csrf cookie and csrfmiddlewaretoken in body – the latter
 is rejected with `CSRF token missing or incorrect` and I have to login
 again.

 DELETE request Headers:
 - REQUEST_METHOD: DELETE
 - CONTENT_TYPE: "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"
 - HTTP_COOKIE: sessionid=[session id], csrftoken=[csrfcookie]
 - HTTP_X_CSRFTOKEN: [csrfcookie] (I also don’t understand why DELETE needs
 this extra header with the same content as the csrftoken…)
 - HTTP_REFERER: [url]

 DELETE request Body: csrfmiddlewaretoken: [csrfcookie]
