I can at least imagine that hasEntity() is a convenience utility method
which can be used instead of checking the headers, status...
But as I've already said few times, bufferEntity() &
isEntityRetrievable() overload the Response with the extra
responsibility - which is absolutely outside of the scope of Response
whose 'job' is to present the information, not to start operating on it.
