Yes, I agree. Methods like PUT & DELETE also makes sense in urllib2. Folks currently wrap those around httplib. HEAD can be implement in a straight forward way using httplib, but if Request has a method parameter, which takes HEAD,PUT or DELETE and behaves accordingly, that would make it complete. And as expected, many voted down -1 on history support.
