That's what I'm doing indeed in my vector layer.  I was thinking of
using a syntax like 

new OpenLayers.Ajax.Request(url, 
                     {   method: 'post', 
                         postBody: json,
                         requestHeaders: ['Accept', 'application/json'],
                         onSuccess: whatever
                         },
                         onFailure: whatever
                      }
                 );

with method = delete.

Thanx.  I think an interesting OL sprint activity could be to go through
the examples and tag them with an appropriate version of OL or revisit
them so they adopt the best practices put forth by the current OL
version.  One thing that would be needed for the examples is a
publishing date : people would expect a 2-yr old example not to be
representative of a OL 2.7 best practices.

I'll go hunt for examples now.
