Web Service Tester: Add menu item "OPTIONS" for JAX-RS
------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JBIDE-6797
                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-6797
             Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
          Issue Type: Feature Request
          Components: Webservices
    Affects Versions: 3.2.0.M1
            Reporter: Juergen Zimmermann
            Assignee: Brian Fitzpatrick

It would be nice if you could add another menu item "OPTIONS" in addition to "JAX-WS", "GET" etc.

The menu item "OPTIONS" would submit an "OPTIONS" request which returns the allowed HTTP methods in the response header, e.g. OPTIONS (always included as long as the submitted URI exists), GET, POST.

Such a menu item would be helpful when testing a RESTful web service to check upfront whether there might be a problem with the intended HTTP method, e.g. you can easily see whether a POST request is allowed or not.
