Do you mean transfer encodings perhaps? They already do specify a
content encoding?
The thing breaking though, isn't actually the encoded content, its the
wrapper - the http chunking (which is a per-spec implementation of http
chunking, precisely to avoid implementing something new, or something
complex).
This isn't to say that you're wrong, just being clear about where the
failure is occuring.
