>                 Key: COUCHDB-234
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-234
>             Project: CouchDB
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: HTTP Interface
>    Affects Versions: 0.9
>            Reporter: Brian Candler
>            Priority: Minor

> Suggested improvement for Content-Type of responses
> Return Content-Type: application/json unless:
> * client provides an Accept: header; and
> * header includes text/plain, text/* or */*; and
> * header does not have application/json earlier in the list
> This is not proper RFC 2616 negotiation - q factors are ignored - but maybe it's better than current behaviour. Tested with Firefox (which still views responses as text), but not other browsers.
