I disagree: application/xml should provide end-to-end integrity,
text/xml should  allow point-to-point conversions (newlines,
transcoding-to-supersets).

Matthew should follow the RFC on everything it requires. If it doesn't
require the use of charset on application/xml, and if Matthew thinks it
is bad to do so (as I do), let him omit it.
