/**
 * HTTP GET method which allows to set a body as part of the request.
 * 
 * The HTTP GET method is defined in section 9.3 of
 * RFC2616:
 * 
 * 
 * The GET method means retrieve whatever information (in the form of an
 * entity) is identified by the Request-URI. If the Request-URI refers
 * to a data-producing process, it is the produced data which shall be
 * returned as the entity in the response and not the source text of the
 * process, unless that text happens to be the output of the process.
