Ok. Then https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/92664/ patch can be
rejected. It does not contain valuable changes. "OPTIONS" is already
supported by "sendCustomRequest" and covered with tests. Should I perform
any actions to reject the patch?

Unfortunately, I can't think of any specific use case except getting
general server settings. For example (from specification), OPTIONS request
can be used to test proxy for HTTP/1.1 conformance. Another use case for
using "OPTIONS *": preflight request in case of using CORS.
