I understand but this seems a deviation (I don't say a violation since the RFC
says SHOULD and not MUST) from the RFC on HTTP (2616):
9.4 HEAD
The HEAD method is identical to GET except that the server MUST NOT
return a message-body in the response. The metainformation contained
in the HTTP headers in response to a HEAD request SHOULD be identical
to the information sent in response to a GET request.
It is certainly a big problem for debugging or for robots which assume they
can test with HEAD.
