Because this is a big patch to the Nginx core and we're trying hard
not to fork the Nginx core to prevent conflicts with the mainstream in
the future.
BTW, if you're using ngx_lua, you can already do strict non-buffered
proxying (for both big requests and big responses) in pure Lua with
the cosocket API and ngx.print/ngx.flush:

James Hurst's 3rd-party lua-resty-http library can also make this work
much easier:
