Comment:
So this proposes a solution without describing the course of events that
makes it arise. At the moment we don't do any casting there because it
shouldn't be necessary. What normal piece of code is passing in a non-
ASCII mimetype?
It's probably not too harmful -- although str() is the wrong way to do it,
for error handling reasons; plus I'll have to look up the spec to see if
only ASCII is permitted or if octets are also allowed -- but I'd like to
understand how this can arise in the normal course of events before doing
that.
