Details

We talked about this a long time ago but I didn't file a bug.  You told me you needed a list of mimetypes.  So:

If a request comes in with "Accept-Encoding: gzip" we should send back gzip'd content.  At a minimum, let's do this for:

text/xml
text/json
application/json

But is there a reason not to do it for all mimetypes?
I don't think zeus allows gzipping everything. Some mimetypes are already in a compressed format and it doesn't make sense to spend CPU compressing them again.
