--- Comment #4 from Leo Ufimtsev <leonidas at redhat.com> ---
In the meantime:
- We've implemented a workaround.
We use Java to do a http request where we set the postData ourselfes. Then we load webkit2 with the resulting result form the server.
It's not ideal, but works.
(If curious: https://git.eclipse.org/r/#/c/112732/16/bundles/org.eclipse.swt/Eclipse+SWT+WebKit/gtk/org/eclipse/swt/browser/WebKit.java)

- Yea, ideally, we just need a way to set the method to be 'post' and manually set the postData.

Example post calls:
1) Query bugzilla:
 URL:  https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/buglist.cgi
 PostData payload: emailassigned_to1=1&bug_severity=enhancement&bug_status=NEW&email1=platform-swt-inbox&emailtype1=substring
  (Something like this can be done via URL/GET but has length limit of 20** chars. Post has no length limit).

2) Query some server with custom data:
 URL: http://httpbin.org/post
 PostData payload: Plain text passed as postData
 Header/content type: content-type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8

If this does get implemented at one point, may we please kindly request you to post a comment in our bugzilla as we lack bugs.webkit.org hooks:

Thank you!
