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
Still, supporting this in a way “that wouldn’t be of use”, i.e. send the 100 status immediately instead of 417 would probably make it a tiny bit easier for clients. However, this is not a bug/problem/feature-request for MediaWiki, but for Squid. It seems Apache&PHP would handle this correctly, but Squid rejects such requests. There is a configuration variable doing exactly what Svick is proposing < http://www.squid-cache.org/Doc/config/ignore_expect_100/%3E, but I agree turning it on would not be a good idea. And FYI: Squid 3.2 seems to
support
100-continue somehow, but not sure how much. < http://wiki.squid-cache.org/Features/HTTP11%3E

I disagree. If we supported it, people will expect it to actually work, and add the extra complexity to support 100 continue to their bots. This would be bad since it would essentially be a no-op and just slow things down.
