Since mng support was removed, the browser should no longer tell websites it is
supported.  network.http.accept.default should have video/x-mng removed from the
list.  

Reproducible: Always

Confirming.

This shouldn't be hard to correct; a simple edit to all.js would do it I would
think.

This dup's a larger Browser bug discussion about how to handle image types in
Accept Header in bug 189872.

Resolving dup unless someone wishes to reopen to do a quick fix to the all.js in
Firebird.

Well, the position in Mozilla is now that MNG is not sent in the header, and MNG
support doesn't look like it's coming back any time soon.

Firebird's header is currently wrong, and should be fixed to match Mozilla's.

Reopening.

if bug 231357 doesn't get fixed, I have a quickie patch that'll just remove MNG
for Firebird.
