Comment (by lukeplant):
As stated above, "Dictionary access should obey HTTP rules about case-
sensitivity of the header names."
I didn't say get rid of the transform - it should be done within the API,
not by the user of the API. In terms of implementation,
`request.HEADERS['Accept']` will map straight to
`request._META['HTTP_ACCEPT']`, at least for wsgi, or do something
equivalent that will ensure case-insensitivity.
