Go's HTTP client timeout comprehends both getting the response headers and reading its body. However, for streaming, the HTTP body will never stop coming until there's a network error or the connection is closed. Moreover, normal on queries, if the body was produced by the server, it's on the client's best interest to receive it, IMO. Therefore, I'm proposing that we change the timeout handling to the transport's response header timeout so that we can use the same client for both query and streaming.
