Comment:

 In my experience changing header names to lower-case will break some
 clients or servers (let alone bad programmed proxies).

 To follow the reference, only key '''lookup''' must be case insensitive.
 Otherwise the application should preserve the original header value. So
 please consider reverting the {{{__setitem__}}} change and the changed
 "Content-Type" case.
