Oh, one more note. Gecko's sniffing behavior actually had to be changed recently. Unfortunately, the more recent Apache installs changed from ISO-8859-1 to UTF-8 as the default encoding, without changing the default content type behavior. So at this point, in Gecko, data flagged as "text/plain; charset=UTF-8" is also sniffed to see whether it might be binary. Since all of the byte values that trigger the "binary" determination are illegal in UTF-8, as far as I can tell, this shouldn't affect any actual UTF-8 text. It might be a good idea to update the tests and the spec if people agree, though. -Boris
