--------------------------------------
See my comment. But some things have to be said. Introducing bad programming
practises, just because of a special case or bug in some component (Jetty) is
not a good idea. I stop talking here, all is said.
> Do not close any servlet streams and improve our servlet stream closing
> prevention code for users and devs.

> Original Summary:
> When you fetch a file for replication we close the request output stream
> after writing the file which ruins the connection for reuse.
> We can't close response output streams, we need to reuse these connections.
> If we do close them, clients are hit with connection problems when they try
> and reuse the connection from their pool.
> New Summary:
> At some point the above was addressed during refactoring. We should remove
> these neutered closes and review our close shield code.
> If you are here to track down why this is done:
> Connection reuse requires that we read all streams and do not close them -
> instead the container itself must manage request and response streams. If we
> allow them to be closed, not only do we lose some connection reuse, but we
> can cause spurious client errors that can cause expensive recoveries for no
> reason. The spec allows us to count on the container to manage streams. It's
> our job simply to not close them and to always read them fully, from client
> and server.
> Java itself can help with always reading the streams fully up to some small
> default amount of unread stream slack, but that is very dangerous to count
> on, so we always manually eat up anything on the streams our normal logic
> ends up not reading for whatever reason.
> We also cannot call abort without ruining the connection or sendError. These
> should be options of very last resort (requiring a blood sacrifice) or when
> shutting down.
