Mount doesn't seem to care what the HTTP method is.

[ehiggs]

If I mount a staticfile directory, making HEAD requests returns the file instead of just the metadata. It's not clear if this is a problem with mount or staticfile.

Example requests to try:

curl -XGET localhost:3000/somefile.txt

curl -XHEAD localhost:3000/somefile.txt

Correct, checking the HTTP method is the responsibility of the Handlers within Mount - Mount is general purpose, and so is still usable even with nontraditional or custom methods.

I'd call this a problem with staticfile.
