None of this thread's suggestions are necessary. If the entry is

the URL of the response content), then
Content-Location == Location
means the response message contains a representation of the entry
at that location. It is already defined and generic to HTTP.
But if you're posting to a media collection, then Location will contain the
URL of the media resource itself. So if the response content is an Atom
entry document then its Content-Location can't possibly be equal to the
Location.
