restkit-0.20

I've just integrated RestKit with a Mac application for communicating with a web service. After much confusion, I have successfully got requests and responses working using it.

The problem I am now finding is that when I want to make a POST request.

I have created a RKRequestDescriptor with a mapping for a whole number of properties and all of the properties are being sent as parameters for the query. I want a way of dynamically changing the parameters that are sent, for example not sending some parameters where the property is nil.

Is this possible as part of the built-in functionality of RestKit? And if so, how?
