Diane Fleming ed4f3c4db9 Update Object Storage API Reference
Point to WADL files that generate the API Reference
  page so that the method descriptions and request
  and response parameters are consistent between
  these two docs:
    http://api.openstack.org/api-ref-objectstorage.html
      (API Reference page for Object Storage)
    http://docs.openstack.org/api/openstack-object-storage/1.0/
      (API Reference (or spec) for Object Storage)

Add descriptions of ACLs, FormPOST, TempURLs,
  StaticWeb, Bulk Upload, Bulk Delete, the OPTIONS operation
  (though this is implicit in CORS support)

Validate all code examples

Remove duplication.

<title>Use Content-Encoding metadata</title>
<para>When you create an object or update its metadata, you can
optionally set the <literal>Content-Encoding</literal>
metadata. This metadata enables you to indicate that the
object content is compressed without losing the identity of
the underlying media type (<literal>Content-Type</literal>) of
the file, such as a video.</para>
<example>
<title>Content-Encoding header request: HTTP</title>
<para>This example assigns an attachment type to the
<literal>Content-Encoding</literal> header that
indicates how the file is downloaded:</para>
<programlisting><xi:include href="samples/content-encoding-header-req.txt" parse="text"/></programlisting>
</example>
