I think it's more than just "allowing". When we choose or define an architectural style, it will have to define how to use GET. For example, current SOAP 1.1 best practice with GET is to return WSDL. I don't expect the TAG will consider that sufficient, because WSDL doesn't describe the state of a resource, it describes its interface.
