I noticed before that some times the Safari in iOS (5.1) will send OPTIONS requests. In Rails, the router will simply route them, so they are definitely easy to use, however, the issue is that most apps will handle them as GETs, so it may break things. I rebooted the iPad when it was doing this and the behavior stopped, never finding out why this was taking place. I have not noticed it again.
