Jan Høydahl commented on SOLR-7405:
-----------------------------------

I'm with Yonik here. We're talking about *documentation*, and we can clearly 
document the content-type requirement for HTTP POST, as well as the simplified 
way of using cURL. In the very first cURL example in the refguide we can 
include content-type, but then introduce the shorter notation in an info-box 
and stick to the short form for the rest of the refguide.

> Update ref guide curl examples to eliminate Content-Type

> SOLR-7217 added a special work arround to solr to autodetect the correct 
> content-type if the user-agent indicates curl is in use and the content-type 
> specified is the curl default ("application/x-www-form-urlencoded")
> while this is certianly a nice to have convenience for people who forget to 
> specify a Content-Type when using curl, there was quite a bit of back and 
> forth on the ref guide TODO page about wether all example curl calls in the 
> ref guide should explicitly take advantage of this for brevity.
> I'm opening this issue in the interest of having a more structured place for 
> this discussion.
