I have reverted this patch, for the following reasons:

1. It removes functionality: there is no way for subclasses to avoid sending
   this header, while it is easy, the way the code is now, for a subclass
   to add this header if it so wishes.

2. It divulges private information (the client's IP) to possibly hostile
   parties.

If you really want this, just do it in a custom subclass.
