Comment (by ramonopoly):

 > I think the difference, and why I'd consider waiting to ship this until
 the bug is resolved, is that MIME types are basically never going to be
 unique. Most folks will probably only have a few. So users are almost
 certainly going to run into broken behavior when trying to use this
 feature.


 Agree it needs to be fixed. Every patch that has proposed to do so in the
 last 20 years has fizzled out.

 I've optimistically started a new one!
