Change Metal return status from 404 to 417
Reported by josh | February 22nd, 2009 @ 04:13 PM
We talked about changing the Metal status code API to something else besides 404 because you may actually want to return a true 404. 417 expectation failed would work much nicer because it isn't used by normal HTTP servers (proxies mainly).
But we forgot to do this before the RC 1 release. I'm not sure if its too late at this point.

Nah, I think it's fine to do it now. IMO, it's a bug that you can't force a 404 from Metal.
