Bulk Deletion of ProgramDataElements

Hi,

I am attempting to do a bulk deletion of ProgramDataElements via the Web
API. I am able to delete one by one by using Http DELETE:

api/25/programDataElements/s3L7Qamxs0s

I am not successful when attempting to POST to:

api/25/programDataElements?strategy=DELETE

with the payload:

{
   "programDataElements":[
      {
         "id":"B6GVF8xN0QL"
      },
      {
         "id":"VvLbQPQH4xs"
      }
   ]
}

or

{
   "programDataElements":[
      {
         "programDataElement":"B6GVF8xN0QL"
      },
      {
         "programDataElement":"VvLbQPQH4xs"
      }
   ]
}

A nullpointer is thrown in the logs (pasted below).

I was unable to find documentation specifically for programDataElements. Is
bulk deletion even possible? If so, do I need to be doing something
differently or is this a bug?

Thanks,

Lorill
