> Currently the ResponseContent interceptor will throw an exception if the Content-Length or Transfer-Encoding headers are found in the response. I am proposing a patch which adds 2 new constructors to ResponseContent. These new constructors allow ResponseContent to overwrite the Content-Length and/or Transfer-Encoding headers if they're already found instead of throwing an exception.
> The biggest use I see for this is in a reverse proxy. The response from the proxied server will already have proper Content-Length and Transfer-Encoding headers. However, this interceptor throws an exception in this case. The simple answer is to remove this interceptor; however, I would like to clean-up any response where these headers might be missing.
> The default constructor is to thrown an exception if these headers are found.
