Subject: bug#20469: mm-url-encode-multipart-form-data: allow for text/plain and application/octet-stream parts
Date: Thu, 30 Apr 2015 14:40:13 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87iocdptma.fsf@violet.siamics.net> (raw)
Package: emacs
Severity: wishlist
As it seems, mm-url-encode-multipart-form-data currently
(1c7f0cdc4c1f, 2015-04-27 16:59:11 +00:00) supports only parts
encoded via mm-url-form-encode-xwfu – even though RFC 1867
clearly shows that text/plain and application/octet-stream are
also valid options.
For one thing, the ‘upload’ MediaWiki API function depends on
multipart/form-data POST requests, /and/ seem to choke upon text
encoded via mm-url-form-encode-xwfu. Hence, Emacs
implementation of the client side of said API cannot use the
function in its current form, and would benefit from one capable
of encoding text/plain parts.
