You're right, of course, that this should only affect main_template -  
there can only be one content type per view. I've narrowed the CMF issue  
down to ursa_globals + Firefox. Without a meta tag the content-type gets  
set to "; Charset=utf-8" whereas getMainGlobals sets "text/html;  
Charset=utf-8" in there.

getMainGlobals:
if not 'charset' in (context.REQUEST.RESPONSE.getHeader('content-type') or  
'')
...

context.REQUEST.RESPONSE.setHeader('content-type',
                                     'text/html; charset=%s' %  
default_charset)

ursa_globals
ct = self.request.RESPONSE.getHeader('content-type') or ''
...
self.request.RESPONSE.setHeader('content-type',
                               '%s; charset=%s' % (ct, default_charset))

So getMainGlobals defaults to "text/html" and ursa_globals to " " for the  
content type. I think ursa_globals is wrong here.
