So the infamous IE bug is there after all. If you serve a file called
foo.pdf from Cocoon, then the bug does not appear either. The bug in IE
is that it ignores the content type in certain situation and looks at
the file extension instead. This is a clear violation of the HTTP
standard.

No, certainly not. But if no-one speaks up on this issue, we'll have a
MS-owned Web pretty soon. That is in the long run worse for novice
users, so the comparatively minor hassle to learn another browser is
IMHO justifiable.
