           Summary: REGRESSION (r66452): Form data no longer contains
                    'Content-Type' header for files with unrecognized
                    extensions
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.5
            Status: NEW
          Keywords: Regression
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Forms
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: aestes at apple.com
        Depends on: 44389


Prior to r66452, WebKit would include 'Content-Type: application/octet-stream' for files with no extension or with extensions that can't be resolved to a more appropriate MIME type. r66452 changed this behavior to exclude the 'Content-Type' header in these cases. This change violates RFC 1867, which says in section 3.3:

"Each part should be labelled with an appropriate content-type if the media type is known (e.g., inferred from the file extension or operating system typing information) or as application/octet-stream."
