This is actually quite cool :-)

If you're using the SlingPostServlet, you're bound to hit a variation of
SLING-2666 [1] sooner or later . The root issue is that the
Sling{Post,Get}Servlets are no always available, for some resources they
are overridden.
One solution is to use vlt, since it bypasses that quite elegantly.
Another is to mount the Sling{Post,Get}Servlet at a different path and
redirect all tooling there.
Depending on how you plan to use your Grunt task, you might be
interested in either of these solutions.
