The XML middleware has been marked as deprecated so I don't see a lot of
work happening here.

Title:
  XML middleware will try to convert everything even if it's not json

Status in OpenStack Identity (Keystone):
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  There are certain routes like /v2.0/certificates/ca that return PEM
  files that do not return the standard choice of JSON or XML data. If
  you request these routes with XML in the Accept field (like if you hit
  it with a browser) then the XML middleware will kick in and assume
  that, like other requests, it needs to load it as json then convert it
  to xml.

  This is obviously wrong. We should only be doing XML processing if we
  understand the content we are trying to convert, and it is better to
  return something that is not on the Accept list than return an error
  (in JSON no less).
