How to deal with HTTP methods is a bit unclear at the moment. Generally
speaking Firefox supports arbitrary HTTP methods though it uses some
case-insensitive hash table which violates HTTP. Internet Explorer 7
doesn't support them, uses a whitelist, and throws an exception for
unknown methods. Opera doesn't either, and uses GET requests for unknown
methods.

Silently replacing the method name by something else is very clearly a
bug. I'll assume that the next major release of Opera will fix that?
