obs-text character encoding and error handling; duplicate parameter names in Content-Type
I have two issues.
1. obs-text character encoding and error handling
What is the character encoding used when a header field value contains obs-text, and particularly
parameter values in Content-Type? Is it ISO-8859-1, UTF-8, or something else? Or is the encoding
undefined? Error handling rules for obs-text, unlike for obs-fold, are also absent.
2. Duplicate parameter names in Content-Type
Suppose that the following Content-Type is received:
text/html; charset=iso-8859-1; charset=utf-8
What is the resulting value of the charset parameter? Is it iso-8859-1, utf-8, an error, or undefined?
(This issue also applies to Content-Disposition, Accept, and other header fields that use parameters.)
