Accept header issues in the Sling POST Servlet
----------------------------------------------

                 Key: SLING-1974
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-1974
             Project: Sling
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Felix Meschberger


As of SLING-1336 the Sling POST Servlet can interpret the Accept request header 
to select what response content type to render.

Unfortunately that handling seems broken as for an Accept header like (as 
generated by FireFox with the JSONovich plugin installed) :

   Accept: 
text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8,application/json

the JSON response might be selected but sometimes also text/html (we can 
observe both behaviours for different server platforms with our application).

The Accept header should probably consider equivalent q values (as for 
text/html and application/json in the example) to solve the tie by selecting 
the first type list; thus text/html in this example.
