Depends what you mean by break, I guess. If an HTTP user agent 
sends a request with Accept: application/*-xml, then as things
stand, it's as likely as not to get back a 400 Bad Request
response.

That might not be breakage, but it's far from obvious (to me at 
least) that it helps us much.

Cheers,


Miles
