Well - this is a test server - and it's useful to be able to do "invalid" things in order to test how the client reacts. And note that this is not strictly invalid, since from the client standpoint - it looks exactly the same as if the handling of the request had been delayed on the server side. The client has no way to know that the server has consumed the first byte.
