[wp-hackers] admin-ajax.php and $_GET?

[Casey Bisson]

Was it a conscious decision to limit the action hook in admin-ajax.php  
to $_POST vars only?

	do_action( 'wp_ajax_' . $_POST['action'] );

Or could we just as easily do something like this:

	do_action( 'wp_ajax_' . ( $_POST['action'] ? $_POST['action'] :  
$_GET['action'] ));

We probably can't/shouldn't use $_REQUEST in this context, as cookies  
have precedence, but the above would make something I'm working on now  
a lot easier.

I'd probably just work around it, but seeing that the "ajax-tag- 
search" action uses a GET suggests there can't be too many arguments  
against GET.
