Lisa:
Before that failure, there's the problem that a GET to a HELD server
requires a custom body. A GET without that body is undefined (in the last
spec version I remember).
Julian:
Oh, I thought it uses POST, but maybe I missed something.
Section 9 of draft-08 seems to specify behavior for GET and
body-less POST as "MUST attempt to provide either a PIDF/LO document
or a Location URI".
Now, I don't know what "attempt" means in that context, but leaving
that point aside, it sounds to me like that's leaning into a
direction that could make the spec work perfectly well with a
browser as a client, assuming there's a handler for
application/held+xml.
The example in 11.1 uses a GET message without a body.
