The immediate reason is that Accept: is a request header, not a response header. But since I don't know of a standard way for a resource to advertise its various representations or to advertise its acceptable content, I think a simple approach like you suggest sounds neat. This should probably be posted to www-talk also Note: there is an Allow response header listing the supported methods...
