That sounds like good advice to me. Any objections?
Used:
Authors SHOULD specify the <code>Content-Type</code> header via
<code>setRequestHeader</code> before invoking
<code>send</code> with an argument.
(Reference to setRequestHeader is included as well.)
It seems implementations should not set a Content-Type header
if the author didn't specify one for non-Documents, and for
Documents it should be the type of the Document, and if that
type is not known, and the Document supports the XML feature,
an XML media type. Does that make sense to you?
How do you determine the type of the Document? You mean HTMLDocument
results in application/xhtml+xml or text/html? It makes sense for at least
XML documents given your test results. Can you still overwrite it though?
