Since no one bothered to answer me in the issue, here goes again:

if I added creates support to get\_url, would you guys consider merging it or would it be considered feature creep and workaround should be used?

A use case and notes can be seen at [https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/2416](https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/2416).

I believe it should be done via register and when\_changed.

I would take a patch that adds creates and removes dynamically to all server side modules using the common infra… That would be interesting.
