Standards are nice and all, but I've implemented a generic Web-client library and had to support payloads with all HTTP Verbs, because, well, some servers require it. Clients of a service seldom get to meaningfully complain - use the service, don't use the service, whatever... So whatever the server wants, the server gets... Although ironically I've also implemented servers and Gorton all kinds of complaining from clients - it's too hard to set a cookie, or header, can't we put tokens inside the JSON etc...
