Description

RFC 7231, as well as the relevant libprocess comment mention special handling of the "identity" encoding.

However, this is currently ignored in mesos, which can lead to incorrect behaviour in combination with MESOS-9451:

$ nc localhost 5050
GET /tasks HTTP/1.1
Accept-Encoding: gzip, identity;q=0 

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
