ReadyAPI GET with Body

I'm trying to use ReadyAPI to submit a GET with a Body.  It appears from what I read that it is not supported.  Is there some workaround for this and will ReadyAPI ever support it?

    Hi,

     

    To add a request body to a GET request please add the below to the ReadyAPI install/bin/ReadyAPI.vmoptions file and restart ReadyAPI.  

     

    -Dallow.get.request.body=true

     

    There should be a request body text area for GET requests after doing this.
