Done in r32417.
The change adds no extra network turnarounds, but it does add some more
headers to every request. I don't see any way around that: since our
server is amnesiac when KeepAlive is off, the client must continually
repeat the capabilities into the server's ear. It wouldn't be enough to
just add the headers for those requests that could result in an
invocation of start-commit, because while that might fix this bug, it
would leave other bugs waiting to happen -- in theory, the server might
need to know the client's capabilities at any time, after all.

Nominated for 1.5.2 (and it does apply cleanly; I tested).
