James Abley commented on HTTPCLIENT-816:
----------------------------------------
Not patching HttpClient 3.x due to end-of-lifing, I can accept.
Requiring the client to configure a custom protocol interceptor in HttpClient
4.0 - FAIL.
> HttClient should support Accept-Encoding: gzip out of the box

> I think HttpClient really ought to support Accept-Encoding: gzip without
> requiring any effort from the client developer. Allowing Content-Encoding:
> gzip responses can be a great bandwidth saver.
> But it also needs to cater for developers that have coded their own solution
> to this issue.
