    I did not review the entire patch but I stopped at this. Seems like I am 
missing something here. 
    
    In my understanding, you can't use the same method for parsing both the 
"Accept", "Accept-Encoding" as the rules for both of them are entirely 
different ! :)
    
    Let's take an example from the RFC : 
http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec14.html
    
    So the accept header also understands media-range i.e. you can specify 
"*/*" or "text/*" et al meaning all media types can be accepted or in the 
second case all media types of text/something can only be accepted and so on.
    
    There are a couple of other things like accept-param and accept-extension 
that also need to be handled.
    
    I assume that your motive for this change was to add a validation operation 
for "Accept" similar to "Accept-Encoding" header that validates if the header 
values are well-formed and should be accepted ? If that is the case, you would 
need to write a separate method/logic and not just use the existing 
acceptEncoding method.
    
    Long story short, we need two methods:
    1. Validate if the "Accept" header is well formed. ( the one you already 
built minus the mentioned caveats above )
    
    Also , it would be good to add a second one:
    2. Given all the accept types mentioned in the "Accept" header , and the 
accept types we support ,is it possible for us to send a response back ? If not 
send a 415 back.
    
    What do you think ?
