This applies to the request and response bodies, drive by Content-Type and Accept respectively.

The motivation for this is to facilitate simpler (CSV) and richer formats (gob). Gob encoding may be used between Go processes, while a CSV format enables streaming the results as they come in.

NL JSON - application/json; boundary=NL and application/x-ldjson
CSV - text/csv
Gob - application/vnd.go+gob
