Rick McGuire updated GERONIMO-3839:
-----------------------------------

    Attachment: GERONIMO-3839.patch

Not sure if this is what you had in mind or not, but it has the side effect of 
making the encoder much cleaner.  Rather than emit the headers directly, this 
change sets the appropriate header in the request before calling 
processHeaders().  This way, any existing headers are removed and the 
information associated with the request gets used correctly.

> Some request headers get special treatment by HttpRequestEncoder.  
> HttpRequestEncoder does not make any effort in checking to see if they are 
> present in the headers already.  As a result, they may be added twice if one 
> is not careful.  For example,
> - Content-Type & Content-Length are added by HttpRequestEncoder for POST 
> requests, and should not be added by callers.
> - Host & User-Agent are always added by HttpRequestEncoder, and should not be 
> added by callers as ordinary headers.
> Although one could argue that callers should not add these headers by hand, I 
> think HttpRequestEncoder still should ensure that they are not added twice.
