initial proposal: https://github.com/apache/libcloud/pull/793
> Proper POST request support in cloudstack driver
> ------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: LIBCLOUD-822
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LIBCLOUD-822
> Project: Libcloud
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Stefan Friesel
> Priority: Minor
>
> The cloudstack driver got rudimentary support for POST requests in b23d908.
> While cloudstack treats GET and POST for a given command mostly the same,
> POST avoids parameters like userdata or sshkeys from breaking the request
> line limit.
> But it's still hard to use because cloudstack's authentication requires a
> signature across all supplied parameters and currently it's only calculated
> for the GET parameters. Additionally tomcat will only interpret parameters
> from the body if they are urlencoded and the content-type is set accordingly.
