Module request 

Applying a content coding to a request body.

There is no standard signal that indicates a server accepts request body encoding ahead of sending. Therefore, doing so always requires out-of-band knowledge in some way or shape. (RFC 9110 §15.5.16 does specify that servers should answer encodings they can’t decode with an Accept-Encoding header; that would require buffering and re-sending the request, so we don’t implement it automatically.)
