Hi everyone,

I'm currently updating the freedesktop.org shared MIME database spec[1].
I'd like to add a note about reading the MIME type from an extended
attribute, if the filesystem supports it, but I'm not sure what key to
use. 'mime', 'MIME-Type', and 'ContentType' have all been suggested.

Does anyone here know if there's a canonical key name for this? Sorry if
this is the wrong place for such questions.

PS: I'm not on the list, so please CC any replies. Thanks,
