Comment (by Hello71):

 I think I wanted to put this in #22233 due to the magical ".z" behavior.
 Upon further consideration though, I realized that real Tor clients don't
 care about what the Content-Type is anyways. I checked Onionoo source (I
 assume https://gitweb.torproject.org/onionoo.git/ is correct) and that
 doesn't check the Content-Type either, only sets it. So I think this is
 safe to merge with minimal testing.
