Copy over more of RFC2183, for instance "disposition=inline" (which I 
think the major browsers understand).

An alternative to all this would be to throw out Content-Disposition, 
and move it ("C-D as used as HTTP header") into a separate spec. If we 
did that, would we want to make at a WG work item?
