Description
Object security only protects the bodies of messages, not the headers. As we may need to use object security in local contexts where TLS is not available, it would be helpful to be able to protect queries. The URL appears in the headers and cannot be protected by object security, but the body can. In order to allow for this, we need to support putting queries in the body for all query types, including JSON Path and XPath (which is also consistent, since SPARQL queries allow this as an option).

Research direction
Start by reviewing the existing query handling for JSON Path, XPath, and the other query types; the issue provides no file or test entry point. Done means all query types can be supplied in the message body, including JSON Path and XPath, so they can be protected by object security.
