Comment (by j4mie):
Interesting. I had no idea this was going to be a can of worms..
I've attached a new patch which maintains the same simple `head = get`
behaviour in the `View` class. I've simplified the tests to punt on
checking that `response.content = ''` (just check that
`response.status_code == 200`).
I can't find any tests for the current handling of `HEAD` requests, so I'm
not sure how much this behaviour has been thought through. Maybe this
issue should be raised separately.
