Description

> > on iOS, Android and Amazon, if upload has a header named Content-Type, multipart form data will NOT be used

> I understand the problem, but wouldn't it be better if we just filtered out "Content-Type" for user-defined headers? (disallow setting it)

In this use case, direct upload without the multipart encoding is desirable, so disallowing the header and forcing multipart upload would have the opposite effect of what was needed.
