POST method on "static" files

Dear list,

This topic has already been discussed (see:
http://forum.nginx.org/read.php?2,2414,47301 ) but so far the patch of
Igor has not been applied to the 0.8.X or 0.9.X branch.

I use a lot SSI to mix static and dynamic files, for example:

main page:

<!--#include virtual="header.html"-->
<form method="post" action "search.html">
  <label for="q">Search: <input type="text" id="q" /></label>
</form>
<!--#include virtual="footer.html"-->

search page (POST):

<!--#include virtual="header.html"-->
<!--#include virtual="/ssi/SpecificNginxModuleProcessing"-->
<!--#include virtual="footer.html"-->

nginx.conf:

location /ssi
{
  internal;
  MyModuleHandler on;
}

So the 405 - Not allowed error code is a huge limitation to do things
like that.

The patch is nearly two years old and I don't see how to integrate it on
0.9.X, any advice about how to do that? Is there any chance that this
feature goes mainstream on the development branch?

Best regards
