Several years ago for an application I was working on, I explicitly wanted to support both url-params and body for POST requests because for me they are completely different and orthogonal beasts. But I found that it doesn't cope well with a number of application frameworks which are confused because (probably due to inheritance of the old days of CGI), for them a parameter is a parameter, wherever it's found, so these were completely mixed at various places in the chain. Thus I gave up, a bit sadly, considering that I was prevented from doing it just due to the risk of poor interoperability at some places and not for any technical reason.
