+ The Request.headers dictionary is not a documented interface. It should
+ stay that way, because the complete set of headers are only accessible
+ through the .get_header(), .has_header(), .header_items() interface.
+ However, .headers pre-dates those methods, and so real code will be using
+ the dictionary.
+
+ The introduction in 2.4 of those methods was a mistake for the same reason:
+ code that previously saw all (urllib2 user)-provided headers in .headers
+ now sees only a subset (and the function interface is ugly and incomplete).
+ A better change would have been to replace .headers dict with a dict
+ subclass (or UserDict.DictMixin instance?) that preserved the .headers
+ interface and also provided access to the "unredirected" headers. It's
+ probably too late to fix that, though.
+
+
+ Check .capitalize() case normalization:
+
+ >>> url = "http://example.com"
+ >>> Request(url, headers={"Spam-eggs": "blah"}).headers["Spam-eggs"]
+ 'blah'
+ >>> Request(url, headers={"spam-EggS": "blah"}).headers["Spam-eggs"]
+ 'blah'
+
+ Currently, Request(url, "Spam-eggs").headers["Spam-Eggs"] raises KeyError,
+ but that could be changed in future.
+
+ """
+
+def test_request_headers_methods():
+ """
+ Note the case normalization of header names here, to .capitalize()-case.
+ This should be preserved for backwards-compatibility. (In the HTTP case,
+ normalization to .title()-case is done by urllib2 before sending headers to
+ httplib).
+
+ >>> url = "http://example.com"
+ >>> r = Request(url, headers={"Spam-eggs": "blah"})
+ >>> r.has_header("Spam-eggs")
+ True
+ >>> r.header_items()

+ >>> r.add_header("Foo-Bar", "baz")
+ >>> items = r.header_items()
+ >>> items.sort()
+ >>> items
+ [('Foo-bar', 'baz'), ('Spam-eggs', 'blah')]
+
+ Note that e.g. r.has_header("spam-EggS") is currently False, and
+ r.get_header("spam-EggS") returns None, but that could be changed in
+ future.
