Chunked Encoding

In PUT method, the way slide client sends data is

PUT /slide/a.html HTTP/1.1
Transfer-encoding: chunked
.... other headers...

<HTML>
This is the html file
</html>


But the way it should work is 
PUT /slide/a.html HTTP/1.1
Transfer-encoding: chunked
.... other headers...

42 \r\n
<HTML>
This is the html file
</html>
0 \r\n

Where 42 is the length of the first chunk content being sent. Lastly one should send a 0 to indicate taht the transfer encoding is over.
Even if I change teh Slide client to send data this way, even the Slide Server does not behave properly, it just creates the file as it is with 42 and 0 in it. 

This is what http/1.1 RFC says. Refer http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2616.txt

Any Clues why this is not implemented?  Is it intentionally left out?
