Why aren't $.put() and $.delete() native in jQuery?
<p>We were having a discussion internally here at work about jQuery having built-in support for $.get() and $.post(), but not for $.put() and $.delete(). </p>

<p>Some think that its to keep the js library size smaller. Others think that its not a feature that is often asked for, so is left to plugin developers to make.</p>

<p>What are some thoughts from the SO community?</p>
