Details:
Hi,
actually I'm not that sure it's a bug, since there are no official standards
(or at least none that I'm aware of) that would regulate this, but it may
prove to be an issue to some web developers.
I found that flash requests don't always work as expected, since some web apps
rely on the User-Agent string being constant during a user session (possibly
to make session-hijacking slightly harder).
This fails, when using Gnash, since it sends it's own User-Agent string
(something like Gnash0.89dev), instead of replicating the browser one (like
adobe flash does).
