Personally I don't beleive in half-closed connections in HTTP, but some 
people like to be able to do things like

(echo "GET http://www.squid-cache.org HTTP/1.0"; echo) | telnet 
proxyserver 3128

In what sense does the FTP path care about half-closed? Any actions seen 
by the FTP module should be independent on if half-closed connections is 
allowed or not, only the sizes of various race windows should change. 
Please elaborate.
