This piece of code is from Catalyst::TraitFor::Request::REST::ForBrowsers I am using the action class REST::ForBrowsers and if a GET request is sent from a browser, methodname_GET_html gets called (otherwise just methodname_GET is called). However during a POST from a browser (and not sending x-tunneled-method or setting the x-http-method-override header) it is setting the boolean ($c->request->looks_like_browser) to 1, yet it calls the non browser sub methodname_POST (and not methodname_POST_html). I assume this is the problem piece of code since the trait is identifying the browser correctly.
Example: 
sub user_GET_html : Private {
    my($self, $c) = @_;
    $c->log->debug('GET request from browser');
    $c->log->debug('Called during browser GET requests only');
}

sub user_POST : Private {
    my($self, $c) = @_;
    $c->log->debug('POST request from non-browser');
    $c->log->debug('But I do think its a browser. WTF mate?') if $c->r
+equest->looks_like_browser; #this should be false due to the method n
+ame we are in
}

sub user_POST_html : Private {
    my($self, $c) = @_;
    $c->log->debug('POST request from browser');
    $c->log->debug(' Nobody ever calls me :( ');
}

EDIT: So the reason is because in Catalyst::Actin::REST it only checks the traits for a GET request. Is there some sort of reason for this?
