The current string is sent by FF for it's mainResource, but for <img> sources
it sends only "image/png,*/*;q=0.5" and for stylesheets "text/css,*/*;q=0.1".

Opera 9 sends "text/html, application/xml;q=0.9, application/xhtml+xml,
image/png, image/jpeg, image/gif, image/x-xbitmap, */*;q=0.1"  for every
request.

IE sends "*/*" for normal requests, and "image/gif, image/x-xbitmap,
image/jpeg, image/pjpeg, application/x-shockwave-flash,
application/vnd.ms-excel, application/msword, application/vnd.ms-powerpoint,
*/*" for images.

Most feed readers (desktop & web-based) don't send any Accept string.
AppleSyndication sends "*/*".

The Google and Yahoo search bots send "*/*"

The MSN bot sends "text/html, text/plain, text/xml, application/*,
Model/vnd.dwf, drawing/x-dwf"
