Uwe Schindler commented on SOLR-5517:
-------------------------------------
In my opinion, we should for this case not fallback to something like the crazy
RAW parser (I agree, this is wrong and leads to confusion). Instead we should
return a better HTTP status like:
{quote}
415 Unsupported Media Type
The request entity has a media type which the server or resource does not
support.[2] For example, the client uploads an image as image/svg+xml, but the
server requires that images use a different format.
{quote}
This can be done by throwing SolrException with 415 as status code.
> Treat POST with no Content-Type as application/x-www-form-urlencoded

> While the http spec states requests without a content-type should be treated
> as application/octet-stream, the html spec says instead that post requests
> without a content-type should be treated as a form
> (http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/html-spec/html-spec_8.html#SEC8.2.1). It would be
> nice to allow large search requests from html forms, and not have to rely on
> the browser to set the content type (since the spec says it doesn't have to).
