Subject: lwp-request does not respect -H Content-type
echo foo.xml | POST -H 'Content-type: text/xml' http://... Does not do what's expected. Clearly the work around is: echo foo.xml | POST -c text/xml http://... which is better, but still, lwp-request should not replace a -H header with an implicit value of www/x-www-form-urlencoded just because it's a POST.
