Both MIME and HTTP don't make this spec mandatory. Daniel, I have no idea what you are trying to say here. What _Anne_ is trying to say is that the table you're pointing at enumerates the set of cases in which a browser will ignore a text/plain content-type and try to figure out what the server "really meant". And that we obviously want to make the set of such cases as small as possible while remaining compatible with the web. The default behavior should be to assume that if the server says "text/plain" it really means that. -Boris
