According to the spec it seems that PATCH requests shouldn't be of application/x-www-form-urlencoded content-type so it shouldn't match the first if, and in the second it's probably wrong to default to application/x-www-form-urlencoded, no?

Hmm you are right. I assumed the diff would be encoded as ``application/x-www-form-urlencoded`` but there indeed is no indication of that in the spec. But given that the second case would still need some sort of handling for PATCH, just not sure what exactly ``$defaults['CONTENT_TYPE']`` should be set to.

As I understand it, a PATCH request must specify a content-type or it's invalid, so we could just skip the second behavior if no content-type is present.
As your first link says:
The list of differences is in a format defined by the media type of the entity (e.g.,
"application/diff") and MUST include sufficient information to allow
the server to recreate the changes necessary to convert the original
version of the resource to the desired version.
Sounds like PATCH is highly application specific, and not so standardized, probably because it's not very useful for most purposes.

Yes, but to me this means that the patch is actually correct aside from the fact that its setting a default Content-Type, which I just corrected (not sure if this use of switch is ok with our coding style). Now if the Content-Type does end up being ``application/x-www-form-urlencoded`` then I would say its correct to decode it.

e80ce57 [HttpFoundation] Add REQUEST_TIME by default
Discussion
----------
[HttpFoundation] Add REQUEST_TIME by default
Without this the getting the REQUEST_TIME from the Request in tests is breaking.
This type of override is supported by MS MVC3 and is recommended by Google.
Also added ability to override request method via ?_method= when
request is made via GET.
* igorw/ipv6:
[HttpFoundation] minor optimization
minor adjustments suggested by vicb
[HttpFoundation] IPv6 support for RequestMatcher
[HttpFoundation] refactor RequestMatcherTest to use dataProvider
[Validator] use full iPv6 regex
[Validator] add IPv6 support to UrlValidator
[HttpFoundation] add IPv6 support to Request
[HttpFoundation] test Request::create with an IP as host name
[HttpFoundation] refactor Request::getClientIp test
* lsmith77/request_format_tweaks:
added text/html to default format mapping
return "q" from splitHttpAcceptHeader() to enable more complex accept header negotiations
added support for setting a custom default format in Request::getRequestFormat()
