My understanding is its not really possible to do this in php in a way that would actually be of use to anyone. See https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26631#c1

Regarding #7 in that list (Expect: 100-Continue), I think it would be nice if Wikimedia wikis did this.
I know that at least in .Net, if I send a POST request to http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php, the Expect: 100-Continue header will be set, which results in an 417 Expectation failed error.
.Net has a switch to turn that header off, and with that the request will work fine. But I think it would be nice if Wikimedia wikis supported this.
I think this is an issue with something in Wikimedia's configuration (Squid? or maybe something like that) and not MediaWiki itself, because it works fine for my local MediaWiki installation even with Expect: 100-Continue set.
