HTTP POST /w LDPRs

Hi,

The LDP spec says,

[[
Per [RFC7231], this HTTP method is optional and this specification does not
require LDP servers to support it. When a LDP server supports this method,
this specification imposes no new requirements for LDPRs.
]]

In other words, LDP doesn't restrict the behaviour of POST any more than
what HTTP does. So if an application allows POST and if those POSTs happen
to create something, technically it is not a violation of the LDP spec, is
it?

The reason for this clarification is that we have a test in the test suite
that uses the POST-create pattern to check the interaction model by looking
at whether a response to a POST on an LDPR contains a 201 code and a
location header.

[[
CommonContainerTest#testRequestedInteractionModelCreateNotAllowed
Resources with interaction model of only ldp:Resources shouldn't allow
container POST-create behavior.
]]

Though this would work in most practical scenarios, IMHO the condition
checked by this test is not imposed by the spec. WDYT?
