   Per RFC 7231:
   ```
   The server SHOULD send the same
    header fields in response to a HEAD request as it would have sent if
    the request had been a GET, except that the payload header fields
   (Section 3.3) MAY be omitted.
   ```
   TR sends `Content-Length: 0` as part of a HTTP GET response, so based on the RFC recommended behavior, then I believe it should do the same in response to an HTTP HEAD.
