I've been thinking on a format for an extension<-->type
map file which would include canonicalization. Something like
.gif image/gif binary
This is primarily a server concern. Clients might can usually
consult a mailcap file. Should the two be rolled together?
Also, notice the problem of canonicalization where it can be
hard to determine (sometimes) from the MIME type, as with PGP:
.pgp application/pgp binary
.asc application/pgp text
Thoughts?
