There is no contradiction, since the same sniffing wouldn't be applied when
navigating and when fetching in a <track> context.

However, if there is a solution which allows the exact same sniffing rules to
be applied for both <track> and <video> contexts and when navigating I'd be
perfectly happy with that. The main point is that it should be possible to
serve video and text tracks without Content-Type or with
application/octet-stream and text/plain respectively and have it just work,
which strictly speaking doesn't require always ignoring Content-Type, even if
that is my preferred solution.
