[issue17322] urllib.request add_header() currently allows trailing spaces (and other weird stuff)

[karl]

karl added the comment:

http://hg.python.org/cpython/file/3.3/Lib/urllib/request.py#l359

    def add_header(self, key, val):
        # useful for something like authentication
        self.headers[key.capitalize()] = val

and http://hg.python.org/cpython/file/3.3/Lib/urllib/request.py#l271
in __init__ of class Request:

        for key, value in headers.items():
            self.add_header(key, value)

Tests seem to be there, but there are none. Is there a reason why there are no 
tests?
http://hg.python.org/cpython/file/3.3/Lib/test/test_urllib2.py#l98

Or should I add a test in
http://hg.python.org/cpython/file/3.3/Lib/test/test_urllib.py

I'm confused :) 
I need guidance.
