Content-Type is a RECOMMENDED not REQUIRED header. According to RFC 2616, the presence or absence of Content-Type header does not indicate presence or absence of request body (there is a gray area of multipart/byteranges codings, but let's ignore that). A client SHOULD send Content-Type header if request has a body. Alex.
