Oleg Kalnichevski commented on HTTPCLIENT-1351:
-----------------------------------------------

This unfortunately will break API compatibility with older versions of 
HttpClient. Even though RedirectLocations was kind of for internal use only we 
should keep the new class binary compatible with the original RedirectLocations 
method signature.

> The current HTTP draft says that when following a redirect with a fragment 
> identifier, it should be processed. However, when HttpClient is set to 
> following redirect there is no way to recover the last fragment identifier.
>     Location = URI-reference
> http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-httpbis-p2-semantics-22#section-7.1.2
> I suggest adding a localContext attribute that contains the last fragment 
> identifiers as is done with the last host and last request. The relevant code 
> is in org.apache.http.impl.client.DefaultRedirectStrategy.
> Relevant document includes:
