Proposed Patch

Addressed Eric's concerns about the test case and the ChangeLog.
There is no consensus in browser behavior. Mozilla was said to intend to align
to the standard. IE has the unacceptable behavior of not sending a content type
at all, which is non-conforming with HTTP.
Here is a link to the latest version of the XMR standard:
