It would be good to know specifically what scenario caused the
exception to be created.  On face value, I agree with you: the
exception doesn't seem to belong. GET might be unique in the sense
that it is heavily used, but from the perspective of how credentials
are used and the damage that might be caused, a complete separation is
cleaner.  More so, the exception is surprising.
