For what it's worth, Mozilla supports the types: "text/javascript",
"text/ecmascript", "application/javascript",
"application/ecmascript", and "application/x-javascript", and
supports a "version" parameter on all of those types, which is in
the range 1.0 to 1.8 (exact string match, not numeric match), and
also an "e4x" parameter taking values "0" or "1" (for example,
"text/javascript; version=1.7").  Which version is specified turns
on/off a number of language features that may be
backwards-incompatible.
