I need your opinion on this request. 
<http://bugs.python.org/issue1673007>

Python Standard Library module urllib2 has support GET and POST.
There was a feature request to add support for HEAD requests.

While that is valid feature request, there was suggestion to include a
history of the requests in the module.  I don't find any references in
the RFCS for any such requirement to maintain a history of requests.

Do you have any opinion on whether is it a good idea to have history
of requests in the urllib2 module? I personally feel that history of
requests can be easier tracked by the clients.

        Nothing is so frustrating as a bad situation that is beginning to
        improve.
