Content-Type

Atom feeds containing UTF8 characters should be served with a Content-Type
of "application/atom+xml; charset=utf8". At the moment Django's default
behaviour is to serve them without the charset bit, and it's not
particularly easy to over-ride this behaviour:
http://code.djangoproject.com/browser/django/trunk/django/utils/feedgenerator.py#L290
The workaround I'm using at the moment is to wrap the feed in a view
function which over-rides the content-type on the generated response
object, but it's a bit of a hack:
{{{
def feed(request):
response = MyFeed()(request)
response['Content-Type'] = 'application/atom+xml; charset=utf-8'
return response
}}}
