Rule: Media type negotiation should be supported when multiple representations are available

Allow clients to negotiate for a given format and schema by submitting an Accept header with the desired media type. For example:

# NOTE: the line breaks below are for the sake of visual clarity. Accept: application/wrml; format="http://api.formats.wrml.org/text/html"; schema="http://api.schemas.wrml.org/soccer/Team"

Using media type negotiation clients can select a format.

Using media type negotiation clients can select the schema version that will work best for them.
