Excuse me, have you considered reifying the entire http message = Headers + request-line | reply-line + entity body. This was the idea behind the wrapped method suggested by your coauthor Hallam-Baker. Whether or not you have the wrapped method, distinguishing transport header from entity headers should be helpful. This is quite easy using dynamic generation and chunking. Of course, it benefits from re-entrant servers/clients. BTW, Everyone reversed encodings of base 64 since it is dead easy.
