Description

The chief advantage of Tapestry.ajaxRequest is that it handles error & failure automatically. However, every time I write a new custom Ajax hook, I end up using Ajax.Request instead, because I need to specify query parameters. Having the ability to set Ajax.Request defaults (including query parameters) as part of the call to Tapestry.ajaxRequest would be very useful.
