It is, but the client frameworks aren't, and some of them prohibit
sending a body with a DELETE request. Further, RFC7231 has this to say
about DELETE request bodies:
A payload within a DELETE request message has no defined semantics;
sending a payload body on a DELETE request might cause some existing
implementations to reject the request.
(ยง4.3.5)
I think we have to conclude that, if we need a request body, we cannot
use the DELETE method. We can modify the operation, such as setting a
"force" flag, with a query parameter on the URI, but a request body
should be considered out of bounds with respect to DELETE.
