It is code written by the devil to torture the good and pure of heart!
It was a kludge to a firefox version that is no longer supported. It's only
still there because it was taken as gospel by the early adopters of jQuery!
I'm not a zealot, or calling for a reform, but I can no longer support the
idea that an http connection ever needs to be forced closed.
John has previously spoken on these 2 evil lines of code, Who will be the
first to strike them from memory????
They cause nothing but trouble and mislead the innocent, jQuery is not hocus
pocus, yet those 2 lines are.
THERE, I feel better!

In the (almost) latest revision at line ~ 4907:
if ( xml.overrideMimeType )
xml.setRequestHeader("Connection", "close");
I'm still not sure when that is really necessary to set. Could someone
summarize the conclusion from this thread?
