> JSON format permits stream properties to optionally indicate content-type (as well as mediaEtag). So the receiver can determine the media content type without having to actually GET the stream content.
> ATOM format, on the other hand, does not permit the media content type to appear in an "atom:link". (See ATOM section 9.1 in CS02).
> It seems that this must be an accidental omission, as surely we should expect equivalent information about the stream content to be available regardless of the format (JSON or ATOM).
