I guess you&#39;re the first to try that. As for your next OPTION, you&#39;ll have to do a bit of experimenting.

                    Wonder why they don&#39;t allow that.  Simply (quickly hacking) the HTTP::Server::Simple code to add |OPTIONS to the regex deciding if the request would be accepted fixed the problem.</div><div>Can I override the default web server used by Dancer in development (i.e. to a subclass of it)?  It&#39;s a bit annoying that the default web server for Dancer doesn&#39;t support one of its route types! </div>
