Perhaps the restriction can be relaxed by finding a way for the resource
to describe itself some other way, rather than by mime type?
In LDP this is done by having a resource describe itself as being of a certain
type with a Link relation ”type” ldp:Resource , ldp:Container, etc…

see example 2: 
https://www.w3.org/TR/ldp/#ldpc-informative

It also has headers "Accept-Post:”  to guide the client
on what can be POSTed to a container and ”Accept-Patch”
to guide it on what PATCH language can be used.

A similar technique could be used to help specify the query language
here?
