Comment:

 Hi.

 The use of 413 vs 400 has been discussed a few times in the past, and I
 don't think there is any new information here.

 I don't see the client changing its behavior automatically based on the
 return code, so manual intervention would be required. In browsers, the
 user probably won't even see what we return.

 If you feel strongly about it, send a patch.
