That's a good point, but I doubt if such a service exists. It would have to be
quite clever because the service invoked by the service deployment determines
the mime-type on its own. For example, the Saxon xslt service takes the
mime-type from the media-type attribute that is specified in the output element
of the xslt stylesheet, or even in another stylesheet that is included by
reference. And that's only xslt, who knows what arbitrary other services will
do?
But I agree it would be useful to have something that determines the mime-type
in advance, and maybe someone is clever enough to come up with something.

Subject: [Fedora-commons-users] API-A method to get a disseminator'sresponse
mime type?
I'm embedding disseminator URLs in a METS file, and I'd like a way to
programatically get the mime type of the response, so I can construct the
correct <file> tag. Unfortunately, listMethods() doesn't return the method
response mime types in its data structure. So far, the only way I've seen to
get the mime type is by actually running the disseminator, with
getDissemination(). Is there a better way to determine the mime type, or has
anyone come up with a web service or widget to return a disseminator's response
mime type?
Maybe this would be a good time to submit a feature request for future versions
of Fedora, to include the response mime type in the listMethods() output.
thanks,
