I still reiterate that I do not think we can add "MUST NOT" for other
URL methods, as that would be change that can make existing
implementations non-conforming (if they happen to send some other url
methods).

We have been in other cases careful not to make changes that could
make currently conforming implementations non-conforming, so I think
this should be similar case.

Btw, our implementation only sends http urls for now.

I still think the current text mandating one method (MUST for http)
provides good enough interoperability. I do not see nede to change
this.
