I think you're right, and I've just been stubbornly trying to use a dict as it's slightly "nicer". I honestly considered making both sides dict and cookies the separate thing as they're the only special case, but I suspect that multiple headers are one of those things that might turn out to be useful for some broken client/new feature someday.
It sounds like you consider multiple headers of the same name in request and response as some kind of bug or fault. It's not it is perfectly legit and something I want to be able to do in my webbby frameworks. Vary is the main one. I know that I can join on ',' in a single header when it is represented in a dict but "meh". I totally agree that dicts are much nicer to work with, so I'm not sure what the ideal solution is, but I just wanted to raise that point about multiple headers. As you were.
