No, it's not; the important thing is whether there's any applicable
spec that (even indirectly) requires the container to generate the
exact same response body (to be discarded rather than returned) for
a HEAD request as for a GET.

No. But I wouldn't have *any* expectations of an ambiguous situation.
Out of curiousity, have you tried this with any different containers
(Jetty, Resin, JRun, ...)?

It sounds like a problem to develop an app based on behavior that's
not required by any spec (or handled totally by your own code). :-)

FWIW!
