I'm pretty sure that the Content-Length header is required for all HTTP
request body content; without it, the server wouldn't know that it's
received properly-formed data. It doesn't matter, though, because the HTTP
request header and body are sent simultaneously, so you couldn't look at the
Content-Length request header, decide "that's too much data", then reject
the request body.
