// In the general case once bytes have been sent on the wire the request
cannot be retried.
// The reason we cannot retry is that the rfc2616 does not make any
gaurantees about the
// retry-ability of a request. In fact in the reverse proxy case it is
quite common for GET
-// requests on the origin to fire tracking events etc. So, as a proxy once
we have sent bytes
-// on the wire to the server we cannot gaurantee that the request is safe
to redispatch to another server.
