(From update of attachment 45336)
I'm against changing our behavior to something that matches no other browser.
We can revisit this once Mozilla takes some action with the bug Anne filed.

The fact that IE and Firefox behave differently gives some hope for servers not
depending on either behavior, but it is also quite probable that client-side JS
has different code paths for different browsers, adjusting Content-Type as
necessary.
