+The default content-type for an HTTP response is `application/json` and the 
body may be any allowed JSON value. The default content-type may be omitted 
from the headers.
 
 Review comment:
   There is a section in the doc entitled `Decoding binary body content from 
Base64`. Do we want to deprecate the Base64 functionality so that we can remove 
it at some point? @csantanapr, FYI.
