Why don't you want those headers?

The Connection and Accept-Encoding headers are transport ones. You don't see 
the difference and it's entirely handled by the QNAM architecture for you. The 
Connection one is required for HTTP/1.0 servers, whereas the Accept-Encoding 
would reduce your transfer size by compressing the data.

The Accept-Language one is added because we found that many servers didn't 
work properly without. You can turn it off by setRawHeader("Accept-Language", 
QByteArray());
