michael@0:  * HTTP TRACE method.
michael@0:  * <p>
michael@0:  * The HTTP TRACE method is defined in section 9.6 of
michael@0:  * <a href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2616.txt">RFC2616</a>:
michael@0:  * <blockquote>
michael@0:  *  The TRACE method is used to invoke a remote, application-layer loop-
michael@0:  *  back of the request message. The final recipient of the request
michael@0:  *  SHOULD reflect the message received back to the client as the
michael@0:  *  entity-body of a 200 (OK) response. The final recipient is either the
michael@0:  *  origin server or the first proxy or gateway to receive a Max-Forwards
michael@0:  *  value of zero (0) in the request (see section 14.31). A TRACE request
michael@0:  *  MUST NOT include an entity.
