What did you do?

Stumbled upon it on failing tests. Here's a snippet:
https://play.golang.org/p/v4ij4Elrqa

What did you expect to see?

Get http://127.0.0.1:2/: context deadline exceeded
true

Works like this on latest (go 1.8.*)

What did you see instead?

Get http://127.0.0.1:44773/: net/http: request canceled
false

This test is kinda hacky b/c .Shutdown() and .Close() aren't there on Go 1.7.
The point is: r.Context() is never canceled on server's side once client disconnects.
