Oops, my mistake.  That's what I get for just looking at the pictures... ;-)

Still, a URI plus a content type should be enough to decide you're going to
be processing an XML-RPC request, right?  Presumably you won't have the same
combination of URI and content type meaning two completely different things.

Still, if "text/xml" as a content-type isn't sufficient, perhaps we can
prevail upon Dave Winer to add a parameter to the content type, e.g.:

    text/xml; service=XML-RPC

Is this what you had in mind?
