Description
Suggestion to 1.9.
Can be better to rename the ajax.type to ajax.method? I generally read METHOD POST and not TYPE POST. ajax.dataType can be renamed to ajax.type, like TYPE SCRIPT, TYPE HTML, TYPE TEXT, ...

Agreed, I'd be good with an alias (and have expected it to be method in the past) but we can't just rename it.

Bulk change from enhancement to feature.

The good approach is to keep using type internally but accept and consider method in the first place in the main ajax function:
options.type = options.method || options.type;
That way we can keep type internally and not break existing prefilters and transports.

It doesn't sound like this will get done.

Sorry, I'm +1 on aliasing type and method, just not switching type and dataType

Alias options.method to options.type. Fixes #12004.

While it's possible to add an alias, I doubt we'll be able to complete "rename" the property - it would break everything that used $.ajax
