responseType is a newish feature. If it's OK for responseType ==
"chunked-text" to use encoding determination rules that differ from
responseType == "" or responseType == "document", why should
responseType == "text" have to be consistent with responseType == ""
instead of being consistent with responseType == "chunked-text"?
