I've written a Patch for REBOL to do this. It's attached. It also
incorporates the http User-Agent modification and Eric's definitions of
'unset! and 'action!.

Just place:
        do %Patch.r
    in your %user.r file, to have this done at each startup.

Comments and additional suggestions for further patches are all welcome.
