Description

As introduced in #131, it would be very nice to have helper fns on the builders for setting common HTTP headers. I'm not sure what the list should be, so we can discuss that here :)

Both Request and Response
  • Connection
  • Content-Length
  • Transer-Encoding
Request only
  • Accept
  • Host
Response only
  • ETag
  • Location

Research direction

Start by reading issue #131 and the discussion here to determine which common headers and builder APIs are actually wanted. Confirm the final header list for both request and response builders, then add helpers for the agreed request-only and response-only headers and verify the resulting API with the project's tests.
