* uses local type instead of application/octet-stream #16

At server-side, Content type always come up with 'application/octet-stream'. Would be nice (useful?) to copy across the local type.

There has been a discussion on this in #14. Basically it's used to prevent browser from converting encoding or whatever (thanks IE). If you want to override this header use xhrSetup event that occurs after FileDrop sets up all headers. But I would recommend you to pass the type in X-File-Type or other extra header (I might add this header on next update actually as it looks useful).

Thanks for replying - sorry didnt check for existing discussion. I understand where you're coming from.

xhrSetup works to some extend - but if I do setRequestHeader there - it'll add to existing content type instead of overwriting it. That's fine though - I'll work it out. Cheers.
