URLRequest with DELETE method

Question
Need to find a way to send a delete method from Flash Player (Flex). Currently it's not done by default (except for from AIR), but I am sure someone has augmented the URLRequestHeader to get it to work properly.
I've tried this, it isn't working:
request.requestHeaders = [new URLRequestHeader("X-HTTP-Method-Override",
DELETE_REQUEST_METHOD)];
Solution
Due to limitations in NPAPI this is not currently possible. The only work-around in Flash Player is to use the as3httpclientlib that builds a new HTTP client through Socket instead of through the browser networking API.
OTHER TIPS
The docs for HTTPService say it supports the value "DELETE" for it's "method" property.
