Buffet Question - Determining content-type

I was wondering how to return a Kid template through Buffet
and
CherryPy as xml.

I saw support for this in TurboKid but could not find a way
to pass the
format parameter to the render function through Buffet.

For now, I tweaked my version of buffet to allow for:
using_template('template_name', 'format')

But if there's another way to do this, I'd like to know.

Well, this hasn't come up before

Well, there is another way, but your "tweak"
might be better.

     cherrypy.expose
     using_template('test')
     def index(self):
         ct = 'text/xml'
         cherrypy.response.headers['Content-type'] = ct
         return {'test':'yo!'}

How does TurboGears set the content type?  Maybe I should do
something 
similar in Buffet, or adopt your tweak.

TurboGears' expose() can take a content_type parameter.
Most expose()
parameters can also be overridden in the dictionary by
prepending
"tg_" on the name of the parameter. That
doesn't appear to be the case
with content_type for some reason.

Sorry, I'm a dope.  I forgot a key piece of information in
my post.

Setting the Content-Type as you mentioned does set the
content-type
returned to the browser, but it capatalizes all of the XML
tags.
That's why I had to tweak buffet.

If you're interested here's my modified version:
