 * The ``TYPENAME`` parameter instead of ``TYPENAMES`` (used by the CITE test suite!).
 * Using ``A`` and ``D`` as sort direction in ``SORTBY`` / ``<fes:SortBy>`` instead of ``ASC`` and ``DESC``.
 
+The FME (Feature Manipulation Engine) software sent ``OUTPUTFORMAT=application/gml+xml; version=3.2``
+to all methods, including ``GetCapabilities`` and ``DescribeFeatureType``. These are also silently accepted.

 For CITE test suite compliance, ``urn:ogc:def:query:OGC-WFS::GetFeatureById`` query returns an HTTP 404
 for an invalid resource ID format, even though the WFS 2 specification states it should return
 an ``InvalidParameterValue``. Likewise, the ``<ResourceId>`` query returns an empty list instead
