Simplify sending just a status
In many cases you just need to send a HTTP status back to the caller without any content. Currently you must do the following:
response.status = IL_HTTP_NO_CONTENT;
il_responseWrite(response : '');
It would be much better to have that in one call.
il_responseWriteStatus(response : IL_HTTP_NO_CONTENT);
You should be able to do
response.status = IL_HTTP_NO_CONTENT;
return
.. otherwise it is a bug

Ok. That works (probably ... haven't tested) but that is not obvious for the user. That only works because ILEastic sends a "finishing" chunk to the client and that finishing chunk uses the status of the response. But that is something the user of the API doesn't see.
With response.status = 204 you have set a value but didn't take any obvious action for the user. I am voting for something like already proposed in this issue.
