Yes, it is normal GET (POST would be something else). And wheither it is CGI
doesn't come into play for request since client decides wheither to send GET
or POST and wheither to include query or not.

Query is just technical name for part between ? and # (or end of HTTP URL),
and can be present in any type of request that accepts http:// URL.

As said, code expects query part to be ignored if target is regular file
but broke when it didn't get ignored.
