Describe the bug
When creating a multipart/form-data content type request it works correctly, but saving the request and selecting again this saved request changes the content type to application/json, it is very annoying to be changing the content type all the time.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Go to 'Create a request'
Click on 'Change content type to multipart/form-data'
Click on 'Save request'
Go to the 'Collections and click on the saved request'
See error

Correctly display the request with the content type you assign before saving the request.

I was the guy who did the multipart/form-data feature. Maybe I could look into it!
