Robert Newson resolved COUCHDB-2258.
------------------------------------
Resolution: Not a Problem
CouchDB has always returned text/plain when it believes the caller is a browser
rather than an application as a pragmatic choice.
use an Accept: application/json request header to get your desired result.
> CouchDB 1.6.0 returns wrong Content-Type

> Key: COUCHDB-2258
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-2258
> Project: CouchDB
> Issue Type: Bug
> Security Level: public(Regular issues)
> Components: HTTP Interface
> Reporter: Kaj Nielsen
>
> CouchDB returns JSON documents.
> So the Content-Type set by CouchDB should be "application/json".
> Instead:
> > GET /db/doc HTTP/1.1
> > Host: localhost:5984
> >
> < HTTP/1.1 200 OK
> < Server: CouchDB/1.6.0 (Erlang OTP/R15B01)
> < ETag: "167-37f82fdbfdc49d38b1c66815deb1e338"
> < Date: Tue, 24 Jun 2014 22:26:39 GMT
> < Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8
> < Content-Length: 649
> < Cache-Control: must-revalidate
> <
> ...
> As seen above, CouchDB returns text/plain.
