We talked about having 'magic' mime-types for gdk-pixbuf and gstreamer,
but short of letting gnome-vfs know about it, there's no real way to do
this.  This isn't really a change from what existed before, though.

Still, given the move to a totally new system seems like something that should be adressed (esp as this issue will probably become more common in the future)
