hi all, i'm somewhat stuck trying to avoid the deprecated tg_format parameter in tg2.0.3.
i want to expose the data returned from a controller in different content_types, in particular xhtml and kml. and since i request the kml from javascript using GDownloadUrl [1] - which doesn't allow specification of additional headers - i have to specify the mimetype in the URL. so trying to avoid tg_format, i appended ".kml" to the URL path. but while request.response_type is correctly set to "application/ vnd.google-earth.kml+xml" (i guess because of the entry in mimetypes), tg2 still fails to pick the correct template engine. this is because i had to specify the content_type in the expose decorator as "application/vnd.google-earth.kml+xml; charset=UTF-8", to make webob not complain about a missing charset. so the check in decorator.py line 121: if hasattr(request, 'response_type') and request.response_type in self.engines: fails. from my point of view, having a way to specify the charset for expose in a separate parameter would do the trick - if that's propagated to webob accordingly.
