Rails 3.0.0.RC responds strangely to empty Accept header
If an HTTP client fails to supply an Accept header, this should,
I think, be considered equivalent to a "*/*" Accept
header. From RFC 2616, section 14.1:
If no Accept header field is present, then it is assumed that the client accepts all media types.
Attached is a patch that adds a (failing) test for this behavior.

This issue has been automatically marked as stale because it has not been commented on for at least three months.
The resources of the Rails core team are limited, and so we are asking for your help. If you can still reproduce this error on the 3-0-stable branch or on master, please reply with all of the information you have about it and add "[state:open]" to your comment. This will reopen the ticket for review. Likewise, if you feel that this is a very important feature for Rails to include, please reply with your explanation so we can consider it.
Thank you for all your contributions, and we hope you will understand this step to focus our efforts where they are most helpful.
