By hanshuebner:

The change was done so that replies always contain information about the encoding used for text bodies. Previously, it was possible to set the default encoding used for text responses without the character set being mentioned in the content type. This was wrong for all encodings except iso-8859-1. With the new behavior, it is possible to set hunchentoot:*hunchentoot-default-external-format* to any legal external format and have that be reflected in the response content-type headers automatically.
