I am trying to use GAE to POST to a resource that throws a Content-
Type unsupported (through a 401)

This is because the POST contains no body content, and my thus the
server does not need a content type specified in the HTTP request - it
rejects requests that specify any content-type header at all.

However, URLFetch is appending a Content-Type header of x-www-form-
urlencoded to the request (as per docs here -
http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/java/urlfetch/overview.html)

I don't like this at all, but while I guess it's OK for POSTs that
contain data, it should not be appended for POSTs that do not. I feel
this is a bug in GAE. What does anyone else think?
