+1 for those suggestions. And perhaps I would add :

(4) Support for methods other than GET and their data bodies when applicable.

Other methods are already supported. However, I wouldn't recommend you to load test non-idempotent behaviour. POST for instance is not idempotent by definition. Unless of course, you're ready to clean-up all the side-effects after the test :)
