Two reasons:

 - As the commit message says, it is desirable to have this on pipe output as
   well (Cubemap would like to fork out to FFmpeg to do remuxing etc. for
   it, without having to speak HTTP over the pipe).
 - The HTTP layer does not have the information about what is a header etc.,
   so it would need to be plumbed down the layers. I tried this at first, but
   it got markedly more intrusive than this, so I left it pretty early on.
