You mean 0.9-devel on my repo right?

That's still heavily in flux, but the headers like Connection could be
made to be not implicitly defined. As it is right now, the linearize
algorithm includes the Connection header if you're not using the
keepalive variant of the tags. I have yet to find a way to implement
the Asynchronous client that supports the keepalive tag, and re-use
connections for HTTP/1.1.
