In Twill 0.9, line 63 of browser.py sets
self._browser.addheaders = [("Accept", "text/html; */*")]
I think this is wrong, it needs to be
self._browser.addheaders = [("Accept", "text/html, */*")]
i.e. with a comma instead of the semicolon. See:
http://www.w3.org/Protocols/HTTP/HTRQ_Headers.html#z3
Because Paste 1.7.4 crashes with such ill-formed accept headers,
I cannot test web apps running on Paste. I'll try to make Paste more
permissive in that regard, but it should also be fixed here.
