Bug ID: 55646

The "non-2xx responses" in this case are 403 errors from the proxy. I'm very
surprised that these aren't considered "Failed requests", while a 200 OK
response with a different length is considered "failed". Other people are
surprised by this too:

* https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=42040
Please would you consider changing this, so that non-2xx responses are errors
but different length responses are not? (or at least optionally so.)
I know that issue #42040 and friends are about adding a flag which makes
different length responses be not considered as errors; I think this should be
on by default, and the option should be to turn it off and require all
responses to be the same length. Thanks!
