Hi Felix, Lars, thanks for the help. I will give it a try.
Yet, I still wonder why we chose to ignore selectors and extensions on POSTs. It appears inconsistent to me that we have these mechanisms that work beautifully for GET requests, but on POSTs they don't. Actually, before looking into the docu and asking here I spent quite some time just trying to POST to a script with a selector because I naturally assumed that this would work. Maybe there is a good reason why POSTs with selectors are a bad idea, but otherwise I suggest to re-consider them. WDYT?
