   The problem with say, DoAction, is that it's a streaming response, so in 
theory the RPC handler can start returning results, and then you can't call 
SendingHeaders anymore (it needs to be before you send any headers). The one 
saving grace is that our DoAction doesn't let you directly send results, 
instead you return an iterator. So then we can implement the potentially very 
confusing API where the body of DoAction() itself can affect what 
SendingHeaders sees, but NOT the iterator's body. Probably this is OK in 
general because most people will return a dummy iterator (and you shouldn't 
expect to affect headers after the iterator has started running), but it is 
odd.
