When using Zope to publish XML documents (using DTML Document objects) I
often write:

  <!--#call expr="REQUEST.setHeader('Content-Type', 'text/xml')-->

Some part of Zope tries to guess the Content-Type otherwise. A lot of this
code is directly shared between Zope and Z Publisher, so you might see
similar behavior.
