[Seaside] jQuery serialize proxy issue

[Lukas Renggli]

Hi Adriaan,

For Seaside it doesn't matter much if there is a GET or POST request,
but if you are calling external services or are using Seaside-REST it
might make a big difference. I think it would be wrong to try to
change the request type behind the back of the user. It would be
possible to change the default request type in Seaside, but then it
would be different to the default GET that JQuery clearly documents
(http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.ajax). I suggest not to change it.
