Brian Eaton commented on SHINDIG-882:
-------------------------------------

The original rationale for not returning all headers is here: http://groups.google.com/group/opensocial-and-gadgets-spec/browse_thread/thread/51b016b80e9d21e6

Almost no gadgets actually need any headers, and even the gadgets that do need some headers don't need all of them.  It would be wasteful to return all of that data.

> Get complete set of response headers.

> We are trying to use gadget for WebDAV browsing. Real HTTP method passed via 'X-HTTP-Method Override' (for example OPTIONS) and fake HTTP method (for example POST). Sever replace POST to OPTIONS before makes WebDAV request and return correct response with header 'Allow'. But this is important for WebDAV header is missing in method org.apache.shindig.gadgets.FetchResponseUtils#getResponseAsJson. 
> Code :
>     JSONObject resp = new JSONObject();
>     resp.put("rc", response.getHttpStatusCode());
>     resp.put("body", body);
>     JSONObject headers = new JSONObject();
>     addHeaders(headers, response, "set-cookie");
>     addHeaders(headers, response, "location");
>     resp.put("headers", headers);
>     // Merge in additional response data
>     for (Map.Entry<String, String> entry : response.getMetadata().entrySet()) {
>       resp.put(entry.getKey(), entry.getValue());
>     }
>     return resp;
> According to code, only headers "set-cookie",  "location" being add to JSON response. Can someone explain what is realy problem add complete set of response headers? And why this restriction applied ?
