> This section misquotes RFC7231 and states that a Content-Type header MUST be present.
> https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7231#section-3.1.1.5 only says SHOULD
> Note that browsers may not specify a content type in some cases. This means that a client can upload a media type without specifying a content-type, the service can store it, and then return the media in a response but may not know what the content-type is (server could return application/octet-stream).
