blocking gzip encoded files

It has recently come to my attention that most browsers happily do Accept-encoding: gzip and streaming decompression of HTML data received with Content-encoding: gzip without asking. This has been in use since sometime in 1998. Is there a way to configure the run-of-the-mill browser to block these at the host level ? Darwin
