Martin Panter added the comment:

Thankyou, I think I understand your situation better now (though I don’t 
understand why Apache doesn’t renegotiate while the request body is being sent).

I would still argue that this is a new feature to be added rather than a bug 
though, and should only go into Python 3.6+. The original HTTP 1.1 
specification (RFC 2068) did not even mention an “Expect: 100-continue” header 
field, although it does mention the “100 Continue” response. And any change 
will probably need new APIs and documentation.

Rather than parsing the headers for “100-continue”, I wonder if it would be 
cleaner adding an API flag to add the header. Or perhaps a new method that 
explicitly waits for the 100 response.
