Actually, now that you mention it probably it would be even better to protect against a huge header size being returned and it looks like the upper limit of the usual HTTP implementations is around 8kB - 16kB. If the header goes beyond this the server should probably reply: `413 Entity Too Large`. But this is outside the scope of this small patch and probably up for discussion with the rest of the devs.
