Bertrand Delacretaz commented on SLING-1974:
--------------------------------------------
I much prefer Jukka's proposal to use server-side configured preferences. It's
much more predictable than relying on the client ordering of the entries.
We can simply add an ordered list of preferred content types to the post
servlet configuration, and use those to resolve ties.

> 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.
