Hello I have a query on the intended behaviour of a 1.1-compliant proxy. If the proxy receives an HTTP/0.9 response from the proxied query, should it create a 1.1 response for its client? If so, what headers would be required. In particular, if a file is retrieved with an unknown type, what file type should be specified? The draft spec doesn't seem to specify the desired/required behaviour. The nearest I could find is section 13.5.2, however this does not really address this issue. Many other sections specify appropriate behaviour of proxy/cache servers, so this seems as though it could be an oversight.
