The situations where I've wished for GET to be able to have a (typically JSON) body were all in situations where the request isn't "user visible" in the first place. That is: API calls, SPA apps, ajax requests, that sort of thing. Not something people are really supposed to bookmark or call directly.

If today you're doing some JS-fu to make an ajax GET request then you already need to do something to have permalinks (if desired).

Completely worth bringing up and thinking about, but unless I'm missing something I don't think a QUERY verb will change all that much here?
