Common practice with HTTP is what declares what methods are in use at any given time.
If common practice were enough, the spec in its entirety would be useless. There's lots of common XHR practice. Besides, the Web's a big place. A lot of people use, say, PROPFIND many times a day (often without knowing it), others have never heard of it. I don't think I'm making any manner of radical statement if I say that you don't build interoperability on hand-waving towards "common practice", implementers' "common sense", or other such mythical animals.
