Hmm... Maye that should be "The response headers *are sent*". The non-obvious
technical details is that the response headers are sent before the body - as
soon as you call `sendResponseHeaders`. The link is here to provide a better
understanding of the workings of the new Handler. The headers are sent by
calling `sendResponseHeaders` on the HttpExchange.
