Subject: HTTP_ Headers from clients

Hello,

I have a small question about the behaviour of Rack when it comes to 
headers send by clients.
Are these always prefixed with HTTP_ ? Or do I need to tell my clients to 
explicitly send them as HTTP_ ?

Example, I'm checking on every request in my Rails application whether the 
HTTP_COMPANY header is present, and has the correct value.
But I've been running into issues with detecting them.
Right now I have the client app send the headers as COMPANY, and my Rails 
app checks as HTTP_COMPANY.
Is this the intended behaviour, or will this go wrong again when the client 
suddenly submits the header as HTTP_COMPANY?

e.g is Rack smart enough not to prefix HTTP_COMPANY with HTTTP_ again?

Kind regards,
Arne
