That code is there only when reading from the default content, right?
Yep.
And that file is *definitely* 'text/html'.
Well, not in the subclass no...
Why don't you just override it at class level in the subclass?
Yeah, that's what I've done, but it seems a shame to have to replace the whole __init__ method just for this one line...
For instance, override '__init__' to read your file before calling the 'super' version, and pass its contents through as 'text', along with your desired 'content_type'.
Fair enough.
That said, since then, I've been trying to fix other test failures and have been pretty disappointed with the way it's been done. A lot of assumption has been made that text/html and text/xml are the only content types that will ever be used and there are several edge cases where things break when the content type is not one of these two :-(
If you have a better solution, please submit a patch :-) Andreas
