+///
+/// Maintains an ordered list of name/value pairs representing
+/// HTTP header lines. This is used both to provide additional
+/// headers when making HTTP requests and in responses when the
+/// caller has asked that headers be returned (not the default
+/// option).
+///
+/// Class is mostly a thin wrapper around a vector of pairs
+/// of strings. Methods provided are few and intended to
+/// reflect actual use patterns. These include:
+/// - Clearing the list
+/// - Appending a name/value pair to the vector
+/// - Processing a raw byte string into a normalized name/value
+/// pair and appending the result.
+/// - Simple case-sensitive find-last-by-name search
+/// - Forward and reverse iterators over all pairs
+///
+/// Container is ordered and multi-valued. Headers are
+/// written in the order in which they are appended and
+/// are stored in the order in which they're received from
+/// the wire. The same header may appear two or more times
+/// in any container. Searches using the simple find()
+/// interface will find only the last occurrence (somewhat
+/// simulates the use of std::map). Fuller searches require
+/// the use of an iterator. Headers received from the wire
+/// are only returned from the last request when redirections
+/// are involved.
+///
+/// Threading: Not intrinsically thread-safe. It *is* expected
+/// that callers will build these objects and then share them
+/// via reference counting with the worker thread. The implication
+/// is that once an HttpHeader instance is handed to a request,
+/// the object must be treated as read-only.
+///
+/// Allocation: Refcounted, heap only. Caller of the
+/// constructor is given a refcount.
