The docs say "To set or remove a header in your response, treat it like a dictionary". So I don't think this needs more documentation.

14020_with_tests.patch is obvious, has a test, applies cleanly to r16353 and passes all tests, so IMHO it's ready for checkin.

In [16417]:

Fixed #14020 -- Made the HttpResponse class slightly more behave like a dictionary, allowing the alternative argument to be unset. Serious thanks to schmichael and moopet.
