btw, this is similar to what pip is doing in it's pull
https://github.com/pypa/pip/pull/791

although, the example given at the top of the gist just *adds* this handler
using "urllib2.build_opener".

the pip pull is going a little further and explicitly removes the bare
HTTPHandler from the call chain, otherwise the HTTP handler is in the
*front* of the call chain, and there was the concern (which should be
confirmed with testing), that it might get called during a MITM spoof.
