Fair enough, it could be a warning when

* more than one space in between http version and status code
* if there is a missing space after the status code


I'm not advocating for being strict only. I'm advocating for giving the tools 
to developer to assess that things are right and choose or not to ignore and 
having to avoid to patch the libraries or rewrite modules when you create code 
which needs to be strict for specifically validating responses and requests. :)

ps: I haven't checked yet if the server counter part of httplib was strict in 
the production rule.
