I had used non-standard methods like PUT and FETCH in a REST API app I'd created as a side-project some time back.

But now that I think retrospectively, its not really needed. You can simply use one POST method with "action" or something as a parameter corresponding to the REST action you want (such as create, delete, update or insert).
