Comment (by lukeplant):
I'm happy with `request.headers` instead of `request.HEADERS` - the
parallel to `request.body` does make more sense that `request.GET`.
Regarding unicode/bytes, it's a very thorny issue, and the more I look
into it the worse it gets. PEP 3333 might apply, if we are assuming a
simple mapping to `request.META`, but that essentially leaves decoding
issues to the user if I'm reading it correctly.
