I think the disconnect is that the user of the API needs to understand the HTTP 
protocol (and its limitations) to use it properly.

You could hide a lot of this by using ResponseHandlers etc - and try and do it 
behind the scenes - like HttpClient does - but it leads to a much more complex 
api (imo) and the code as well.
