Research direction

Start by reviewing this issue alongside #3570 and the repository's HTTP/2 handling. Determine whether transparent-head-requests should be implemented at the lower levels or explicitly documented as unsupported. Done means one of those paths is resolved with the expected HTTP/2 behavior or documentation.
