-----------------------------------

             Summary: Support "+json" convention in media types
                 Key: COUCHDB-1589
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-1589
             Project: CouchDB
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 1.1.1
            Reporter: Mark Baker
            Priority: Minor


The use of the "+json" suffix in media types is being standardized in http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-appsawg-media-type-suffix-regs

It would be nice if Couch supported the use of those types instead of rejecting non application/json content. Doing this properly would suggest that the media type would have to be remembered per document so that it can be returned on a GET. I don't foresee any other problems with this change. 

I was only able to verify this in versions prior to 1.2 so apologies if it's already been added for 1.2.
