Does it make sense for the cli to canonicalize the content types to
always be lower case?  Or should it continue to just pass the content
type exactly as it appears in the original message?  Given that
consumers should parse it case insensitively, it maybe doesn't matter,
but it might also be nice for us to be consistent.  Maybe it's just ok
as it is.
