This doesn't seem to be an issue in 3.4+, the following headers are injected in a call to urlopen():

GET / HTTP/1.1
Accept-Encoding: identity
Host: example.com
User-Agent: Python-urllib/3.4
Connection: close

However, this is not the same behaviour in 2.7:

GET / HTTP/1.0
Host: example.com
User-Agent: Python-urllib/1.17

That said, I wouldn't see this as a bug but a feature request, so it should be invalid for 2.7.

Setting this to pending to close unless anyone has any objections or further details.
