> I'd guess you'd be able to `del request.headers` to reset the property
in your test.
Modification of META is documented behaviour:
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/request-
response/#django.http.HttpRequest.get_host
Shouldn't `request.META.__setitem__` and `request.META.__delitem__` `del
request.headers` to synchronize if the key starts with `"HTTP_"`? In the
current code, if any middleware has peeked into `request.headers`, the
data gets out of sync on mutation.
