> Project: Apache AWF
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Niklas Gustavsson
>
> The Host: header is actually an interim solution to the problem of host
> identification. In future versions of HTTP, requests will use an absolute URL
> instead of a pathname, like
> GET http://www.somehost.com/path/file.html HTTP/1.2
> To enable this protocol transition, HTTP 1.1 servers must accept this form of
> request, even though HTTP 1.1 clients won't send them. The server must still
> report an error if an HTTP 1.1 client leaves out the Host: header
