I welcome this improvement but I agree with Dan Fandrich that it would be more 
useful if implemented as a callback. My use cases for request trailers involve 
signing operations on the message body where it's expensive to buffer the whole 
request before starting to send the body… especially as parsing the trailer 
would be optional.

Why is the client sending Expect: 100-continue here? As an aside, the Accept: 
header also looks invalid.
