+"""Tests for the base/table/view export endpoints.
+
+Background (ticket): the export endpoints return binary bodies with a specific
+Content-Type (``application/x-zip-compressed`` for the ``.dtable`` zip exports,
+``application/ms-excel`` for the Excel exports). Historically dtable-web rejected
+those exact values in the request ``Accept`` header with
+``406 Could not satisfy the request Accept header``, which forced the OpenAPI spec
+to declare ``application/json`` as a workaround.
+
+As of the version tested here, the bug is only *partially* fixed:
+
+* Fixed  – the two ``.dtable`` zip exports in the user API accept their real
+  media type. These are covered by regular (passing) tests below.
+* Broken – the two Excel exports and the sys-admin ``export-dtable`` still return
+  406 for their real media type (only ``*/*`` / ``application/json`` work). These
+  are covered by ``xfail`` tests that assert the *desired* behaviour, so they will
+  turn into ``XPASS`` once the backend is fixed — that is the signal to drop the
+  ``application/json`` workaround from the spec and remove the ``xfail`` marker.
