    I guess the parser just lowercases the key ("keep-alive"), not the values. \
Lowercasing the keys is okay because per the spec they are case-insensitive, and it \
has the advantage that you can look up keys in more or less constant time when using \
a hashtable.  In many cases the values are case sensitive (usernames, something \
Base64-encoded for example), so the parser better leaves them alone. So you need to \
normalize the case yourself.

For example what apache web server normally sends is something like that:

&quot;Keep-Alive: timeout=5, max=99&quot;

Actually kio_http fails to extract timeout value because it assumes
keep-alive header can contain only a single value pair.
In the case of example above what it end up to do is
m_request.keepAliveTimeout = QString(&quot;5, max=99&quot;).toInt(), that returns 0 \
