I'm sort of dubious on the whole 'retain blank headers' bit. If we put them into the request_headers list, many modules might barf when they encounter them.
Is it possible, by the protocol, to consider blank headers a noop, and simply not store them in the request headers array? E.g. no value [excepting white space] == not present?
