Dealing with throttling responses

[stevecj]

I notice that nothing is done to try to deal with throttling responses which are non-success responses containing the "Retry-After" header.

To be fair, although I see that there are a lot of services APIs that document the fact that they have throttling, and I see basically no Python client libraries for anything that take it into account.

Is this something that should be taken into account, or can the issue be ignored?

@stevecj I met last week with 429 response. So do you mean it would be great if rest_client will retry if met with 429 response ?
