There is no notion in RFC 3023 that text/xml and application/xml refer respectively to document- and data-oriented XML. The differences between the two are primarily about character set handling, and I suspect a lot of people at the IETF would like to see text/xml disappear completely. http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3023.txt There are a lot of reasons why not - visit ietf-xml-mime@i... for a more detailed exploration.
