What I meant was, "GET /messages/1/delete displays the confirmation
form ("Do you really want to delete 'My Favorite Pony'?"). Then
either "DELETE /messages/1" or "POST /messages/1/delete" could be
implemented to delete it. The latter is what I've used in the past.
Though I like Ian's idea of using a query param to choose a form... maybe.
