Actually what I was saying was that there should be two files containing
all MIME-types and none would be hard-coded. One would come with Zope
and another could be added by a user if they wanted to support
additional ones.

However since it seems that support for a list in a file is already
there (except for Windows), there doesn't seem to be a strong need to
change things. Perhaps just making it support Windows would help...
