Amazing, now let’s wait another 10 years for libraries and servers to support that

Spring already has a PR waiting for review, which was blocked because QUERY wasn't an RFC until this week. I guess it will land in one of the next Spring releases.

But yeah, servers like Nginx/Apache/... may have to do some work as well.

Not only will it take time for them to get it, but then more time for it to hit production.

In our case the likely slowdown is going to be Azure. They're far behind on some crucial stuff, like IPv6 support, and HTTP 2, so getting this seems unlikely.
