RFC 2616, section.9.6, the description of PUT states:
"The recipient of the entity MUST NOT ignore any Content-* (e.g. Content-Range) headers that it does not understand or implement and MUST return a 501 (Not Implemented) response in such cases."
That language sounds as if a server that ignores Content-Language (as opposed to storing it with the entity) MUST reject PUT requests that come with a Content-Language header. Is this really intended? Does anybody implement that?
