@ -783,8 +783,10 @@ The ``start_response`` callable maps similarly to Response:
* The ``status`` argument becomes ``status`` and ``status_text``
* ``response_headers`` maps to ``headers``
The main difference is that ASGI is incapable of performing streaming
of HTTP body input, and instead must buffer it all into a message first.
It may even be possible to map Request Body Chunks in a way that allows
streaming of body data, though it would likely be easier and sufficient for
many applications to simply buffer the whole body into memory before calling
the WSGI application.

=====
* Work out if we really can just leave HTTP body as byte string. Seems too big.
Might need some reverse-single-reader chunking? Or just say channel layer
message size dictates body size.
* Maybe remove ``http_version`` and replace with ``supports_server_push``?
* Be sure we want to leave HTTP ``get`` and ``post`` out.
* ``receive_many`` can't easily be implemented with async/cooperative code
behind it as it's nonblocking - possible alternative call type?
Asyncio extension that provides ``receive_many_yield``?
