It's because we no longer use content-type to describe the programming
language, which always seemed dubious to me anyway. The only language
that actually had anything resembling a MIME type was javascript, and
it had 2 "text/javascript" and "application/javascript". All the
others were going to be "application/lang_x", and since we don't
actually use this info anywhere a MIME type would be used, it's
pointless to require everyone to specify "application/lang_x" instead
of just plain "lang_x".

I think this is useful as a proper media type. There may be
occasions when
similar media types could be used for a view server in which case we
would want
the full version.
