Is that a bug in urllib, or in Facebook's HTTP implementation?
Frankly, we shouldn't jump to conclusions just because one specific use case is 
made better by this. Forcing an accept header may totally change the output of 
other servers and break existing uses.

(and besides, the content-type header is unimportant when you know what to 
expect, which is normally the case when calling an API)
