Yes! Thanks for the excellent foresight. Glad to make use of it.

>(the spec says text/xml ...

Darn! It looks like it's sending application/x-www-form-urlencoded.
The code is buried in the massive open_http() method of the 
urllib.URLopener class. I don't see any easy solution. I guess one
could subclass FancyURLopener and reimplement open_http()
with one line changed...

It bad content-type han't caused me any problems yet, though.
