Quick question regarding the recent work with Shindig's OAuth support.
Here's the scenario: I've got two instances of Shindig running, one on 
port 7070 the other on 8080. What I'd like to be able to do is a 
makeRequest(restURL) from a gadget on 8080 to 7070. This would cause the 
OAuth to kick in and I should see the oauthpopup and the login screen from 
the second shindig. The goal is to easily see the "end-to-end" behavior of 
what shindig does for OAuth. For convenience, I'm just hitting the social 
api on the second (7070) shindig.

So all was working great until.... I loaded the latest code from trunk. 
Now, when I do the make request from the gadget rendered from shindig on 
8080, I get a null pointer exception because line 203 of 
OAuthAuthenticationHandler returns null and I get the error: 
"Cannot use disallowed Content-Type application/x-www-form-urlencoded 
description The request sent by the client was syntactically incorrect 
(Cannot use disallowed Content-Type application/x-www-form-urlencoded)"

I saw the post on why x-www-form-urlencoded is no longer allowed, but my 
question is, how can I set the content type to application/json on the 
makeRequest? It seems like it should be pretty easy to have two shindigs 
talking to each other but somehow they started tripping over in the last 
week. Is there another secret setting on the OAuth decoder ring that I 
need to be aware of?

Thanks (again) for all the help.
