Please describe the feature requested.

Some Google API methods require sending a POST with no HTTP content.  However, 
Google's server require a non-zero content on a POST.  Therefore, we need set a 
content of size >= 1, e.g. use:

       request.content = new ByteArrayContent(" ");

in RemoteRequest.execute().

We are already doing that trick for MethodOverride and it seems to work.
