RFC 10008 defines QUERY, a safe and idempotent method that carries the query as request content. Query mirrors Get/Post and MustQuery mirrors MustGet. req already sends a body for non-GET/HEAD/OPTIONS methods, so SetBody(...).Query(url) works as-is. Extends TestSendMethods with a QUERY case.

Automated review (PR Review Loop):
Scope: Adds Query() and MustQuery() methods for the HTTP QUERY method (RFC 10008). Files: request.go (+23 lines), request_test.go (+6 lines). Very small, focused change.
Review:
Query(url)callsr.Send("QUERY", url)— consistent with existingGet,Head,Post, etc. method patterns. Correct.MustQuerypanics on error — consistent with existingMustGet,MustPostconvention. The comment "should only be used to test without error handling" matches the existingMust*methods.- Test added in
TestSendMethodstable — verifies the method is sent as "QUERY". Consistent with existing test structure. - No changes to modified stdlib, quic-go, or HTTP/2 code.
Note: CI did not run on this branch (fork PR). The code is straightforward and follows existing patterns. Recommend the maintaker trigger CI or do a local build before merge.

What
Adds
QueryandMustQueryverb helpers for the HTTP QUERY method.Why
RFC 10008 (Proposed Standard, June 2026) defines QUERY, a safe and idempotent method that carries the query as request content — like
GETbut with a body, and unlikePOSTit is safe, idempotent and retryable. It's a good fit for large or structured queries that don't belong in a URL.What's added
Request.Query(url)— mirrorsGet/Post, sending theQUERYmethod.Request.MustQuery(url)— mirrorsMustGet.No other changes are needed: req already sends the request body for methods other than GET/HEAD/OPTIONS, so
client.R().SetBody(...).Query(url)works out of the box.Tests
Extends
TestSendMethodswith aQUERYcase.go test ./...passes.
