Comment:
Handling of HEAD requests is something that has been there from the
beginning, so it's entirely likely that it's untested. As for the WSGI
compliance -- it's never come up, so it. Django does drop the content for
HEAD requests, so if that is the wrong thing to be doing (and based on
Graham's comments, it looks like it might be in the WSGI context) there is
a need for another ticket.
By way of explanation -- In this case, I suspect Django's behavior
predates our support for WSGI, and for mod_python, truncation would be
(AFAICT) the right behavior.
