I think the whole point is that it shouldn't be sending gzip encoding for an
"Accept-Encoding: *" header.  There are browsers which send this, for the
purposes of noting that all encodings are acceptable for passing to external
non-inline filters/plugins.  But if you want gzip encoding to be treated as
a "standard" way of encoding renderable data (as if the encoding were not
there), you should specify "gzip".
