      A DESCRIPTION OF THE REQUEST :
      HttpURLConnection does not support the TE and Transfer-Encoding headers for servers that support the "gzip" encoding of response entities or the "gzip" decoding of request entities.

      JUSTIFICATION :
      Such support can increase the efficient of transmitted information.

      EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
      EXPECTED -
      Perhaps a property set on the HttpURLConnection to enable such support for TE and a separate property to support Transfer-Encoding on requests.
