Can't get delete links to work in Phoenix 1.7rc

If you use href={~p"/items/#{item}"} (which the generated code uses) instead of navigate={~p"/items/#{item}"} it works.

Have a look at the difference in the generated <a> tags: href will include the data-method="delete" attribute, navigate does not

<.link href={~p"/items/#{item}"} method="delete">
<a href="/items/1" 
  data-method="delete" 
  data-csrf="..." 
  data-to="/items/1">
  Delete
</a>

<.link navigate={~p"/items/#{item}"} method="delete">
<a href="/items/1" 
  data-phx-link="redirect" 
  data-phx-link-state="push">
  Delete
</a>
