We can "do the right thing" whether you ask for 
"application/provenance+xml" or "application/rdf+xml"

At the moment is meaningless, but when we get to the final version, it would become than easy to generate, for example, an RDF/XML version of the files, too, and ensure content negotiations between turtle and RDF/XML. If, at that point, we want to add RDFa or JSON-LD as additional encodings, that would be easy, too.

Although... this is not entirely kosher I guess: conneg means the same information just different syntaxes and saying the XML is the same information is sort of true, but it is not RDF, so it may be a borderline... We will decide when we get there.
