Describe the Issue

When using the server's communication method HTTP, the client doesn't accept application/json content type as a response header.
At the same time, the client sends the Accept header with the following value: application/json, text/event-stream as it is supposed to be according to the MCP docs.

Steps To Reproduce

  1. Open the new request tab.
  2. Select HTTP communication method.
  3. Insert the URL of the server that responds with Content-Type: application/json.
  4. See the error message, like on the screenshot.
