Copy as cURL always copies cURL requests with GET (default) method event if it has another method

Reported by edith.ka...@gmail.com, Jun 13 2018 
UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_13_4) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/66.0.3359.181 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. login to a website which does POST requests
2. open the developers tool on network
3. copy one of the requests which has Request Method: POST as cURL request 

What is the expected behavior?
cURL request will have POST in it for example: 
curl POST 'https://somewebsite.com/aa/aa/' 

What went wrong?
cURL request doesn't have POST in it, default curl request without any method in it is a GET request. 
curl 'https://somewebsite.com/aa/aa/' 

Did this work before? Yes i'm not sure, but it is not the first time i use this feature

Thanks for the report.  When a request has method: POST and no form data, the generated CURL command should include the '-X POST'.  When the request does have form data, DevTools intentionally omits the inferred '-X POST' and instead adds either '--data' or '--data-binary', which tells CURL to send a POST request [1].

Could you please confirm whether the copied CURL command has a "--data" or "--data-binary" in it somewhere?
