16887	Increase the default number of maximum redirects to 20	hakre		"The default number of maximum redirects in the diverse HTTP implementations in wordpress are hard-encoded to 5.

I suggest to change that hardencoding to 20.

That's [http://www.php.net/manual/en/context.http.php PHP's hardencoded] value as well.

I could not find any information in wordpress so far, why 5 was hardencoded."	enhancement	closed	normal		HTTP	3.1	normal	worksforme
