Independent from this decision: If the file is a plain text file (independent if you choose to put the MIME type into application/ or text/ ... even an application/foo file can be a plain text file), you must add the information, that the MIME type is a sub-lass of text/plain. Otherwise GNOME-VFS and probably also the KDE4 libs will fail to detect the correct file type. They will then tell you in slow detection, that the file is of type text/plain instead of text/foo| application/foo (whatever you have chosen).

Is it correct ? Looks good to me. gnomevfs-info can tell you, if the correct type is detected. Regards, Daniel
