LiveCode support of HTTP-methods other than GET and POST

[Alain Farmer]

Hello y'all,
In particular: Jan Schenkel and Ray Horsley.

I have not posted in a l-o-n-g time.
To be precise, this is not a new post; it's a repost that is still relevant to me.
Does LiveCode support HTTP-methods other than GET and POST ?

IOW, does LiveCode support the following http-methods : HEAD, PUT, DELETE

I'm asking because there are web-based CRUDs that could therefore be leveraged. 
Ex: Couch-DB

CRUD = Create, Read, Update, Delete
Create = PUT
Read  = GET
Update = POST
Delete = DELETE

If it is not currently implemented, are there any bounty-hunters wishing to take this on ?

Btw Couch-DB is a powerful noSQL database, open-source of-course, that is accessed via HTTP. 

It's speciality is replication and synchronization. 
Supports any topology: master-slave, peer-to-peer, etc.
Couch stores everything as JSON, which is JavaScript's native data-exchange format.
JSON is used by many applications. It's easy to generate, and easy to parse.

This could REALLY open-up things for RunRev!  :-))
