This particular nasty pattern is deeply entwined in all the code that touches the HTTP library in any way, so it will be a big job to get rid of it -- basically re-writing HTTP support and all the services which use it. I didn't want to get into that :-).

This would be a good chance for Py3K to dump httplib/urllib/urllib2 and use some more modern library.
