AbstractTransformerBehavior breaks ajax requests in IE8
-------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: WICKET-4464
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WICKET-4464
             Project: Wicket
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: wicket
    Affects Versions: 1.4.20
            Reporter: Robert Keller


AbstractTransformerBehavior sets ´webResponse.setContentType("text/" + 
getMarkupType(component) + "; charset=" + encoding);´

This delegates to the page and in our case usually returns "text/html".

In ajax-request this overwrites the required setting for ajax "text/xml". If 
IE8 receives an ajax-response as "text/html" then in wicket-ajax.js:1049 the 
xmldoc = t.responseXml is null and the error is:
"ERROR: Wicket.Ajax.Call.failure: Error while parsing response: Could not find 
root <ajax-response> element".

This error was created by https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WICKET-3633.

Possible un-/fixes:
- Changing the markuptype on page level to "xml" in ajaxrequests might break 
functionality.
+ let only AbstractTransformerBehavior consider ajaxrequests and then set xml
+ at least: make 
org.apache.wicket.markup.html.border.MarkupComponentBorder.getMarkupType(Component)
 protected and not final!
