Comment (by Lily Foote):
I'm sorry if I'm misunderstanding something here, but doesn't the wontfix
here leave it impossible to test the case where the content type is
explictly set?
Using the example above, both these cases behave the same:
{{{
class MyTest(SimpleTestCase):
def test_content_type(self):
resp = self.client.post("/", data=b"", content_type="application
/octet-stream")
print(resp.content)
# b"{'Cookie': ''}"
def test_no_content_type(self):
resp = self.client.post("/", data=b"")
print(resp.content)
# b"{'Cookie': ''}"
}}}
But it would be useful for the first case to set the content type so we
can test the case where it is present for empty content.
