Right you are.  I'm still struggling with the Prefer thing though.  It
makes sense in a way, but it triggers antibodies.

Maybe it's just Prefer isn't a real header in its own right.  It's a
header that contains other headers.  There's nothing special about
what Prefer carries that a regular header couldn't already carry.
There isn't a clear set of rules that help me decide when X belongs in
Prefer and when it doesn't.
