Summary: Pb Default_headers / Host: field when working with >1 site

Initial Comment:
When I capture a script involving more than one 
distant site (let's say 2, site1 and site2 on <host1> 
and <host2>, IBM WebSphere 5.0 on Windows 2000), the 
capture :
- creates only one DEFAULT_HEADERS constant 
containing "Host: <host1>",
- does not record the Host: header field in the WITH 
{...} clause of the URIs to site1
- does record the "Host: <host2>" header field in the 
WITH {...} clause of the URIs to site2 (as the last 
field).

a) When I replay the exact captured script, it seems 
to work fine.

b) Then when I change the order of the fields in the 
WITH clause of the URIs to site2, I get 400 errors 
(BAD Req).

c) Then when I add a new DEFAULT_HEADERS2 constant not 
containing any "Host: " field and I use it in all the 
URIs to site2 instead of the first one, it works fine.

I don't really know why it works in a) and not b) 
(there is or there is not a conflict on the duplicate 
Host: fields depending on they position) ; however I 
believe there should not be any duplicate "Host:" 
field.
IHMO the best would be that the capture creates two 
distinct DEFAULT_HEADERS constants with their 
respective "Host:" field, and no "Host:" field in the 
WITH clauses.
