Based on what mechanism? AFAIK the closest thing that is in the HTTP
spec would be what is described in RFC 2616 19.5.1, which is the
"application/octet-stream" solution I provided. I presume there are
other methods that work with certain browsers, but how would you know
for sure it works with future browsers unless you base it on the HTP spec?
