The problem is, that when I use 'Follow TCP Stream' -feature, only
the request is shown. "Entire conversation" shows only send data, and
when selecting to show only the reply direction, nothing is shown.
Now I think it would be logical to conclude this has something to do
with the stream being half-closed in the middle.

Possibly, but the only open/close indications the code that constructs the TCP streams sees are open indications (SYN flags), so I'm not sure how that could be the cause.

Do you have a capture file you can send us that demonstrates this?
