Access original raw headers with WSGI

So lets say you have a WSGI handler:

def handle_request(environ, start_response):

The headers in environ should be something like

{'HTTP_HOST': 'localhost:8080', 'HTTP_USER_AGENT': 'Mozilla/..'}

WSGI turns "User-Agent" and "user_agent" into "HTTP_USER_AGENT", but I need the exact original name.

Are there ANY way to access the original headers / request text?

No there is not. As per the WSGI specification the headers are passed per CGI naming rules.

Perhaps actually describe the underlying problem you are trying to solve.
