That's true, although the BasicProperties contentType and
contentEncoding fields are intended to carry MIME content-type (e.g.
"application/json", "application/x-hessian" (in the absence of an
official IETF Hessian registration)) and MIME content-encoding
identifiers respectively, which can help out here.
