With the release of 2.2, I took the opportunity from the new
[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.2/ref/request-
response/#django.http.HttpRequest.headers HTTPRequest.headers object] to
clean up old code using e.g. `request.META['HTTP_X_REAL_IP']` to
`request.headers['X-Real-IP']`.
However, this new approach does not work with templates, as
[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.2/ref/templates/api/#variables-and-
lookups variable lookups cannot use hyphens].
Could the object contain a parallel set of keys in underscored variables?
e.g. `request.headers['foo-bar']` is also available in
`request.headers['foo_bar']` and can be looked up with `{{
request.headers.foo_bar }}` in a template?
