Follow-up Comment #1, bug #61649 (project wget):

Perhaps we could use the options:
--compression=auto
Don't set the Accept-encoding header, but respond to the Content-Encoding:
header uncompressing if required

--compression=none
Don't set the Accept-encoding header, and ignore the Content-Encoding: header

--compression=gzip
Set the Accept-encoding header, and respond to the Content-Encoding: header
uncompressing if required

with --compression=auto being the default behaviour as that will bring it's
behaviour in line with the vast majority of user agents, and deliver minimal
change to the behaviour of wget whilst maintaining availability of current
behaviour in the event it is needed.
