We should assume that persistant connections aren't being used, unelss
specified otherwise (via the appropiate header).

Well we don't need to explicitly handle these codes, because they will
always (well in practice anyways) be acompanied by the proper Location
header.  However, it might be interesting to have some sort of don't
automatically follow the location header, and prompt the user for the
appropiate action feature (i.e, display {temporarily,perm} moved to this
location, do you wish to go there?).
