Matthias Krueger commented on TIKA-1365:
----------------------------------------
Some more observations:
* The lower priority of the text/html magics vs. the application/xml magics was
introduced in
https://github.com/apache/tika/commit/88b52d66f0f70ca1edc89dc5387c6f74306d4c99
as part of TIKA-560. Goal was to be able to distinguish between text/html and
application/x-foxmail. This was achieved by decreasing the priority of the
text/html magics below the default of 50.
* I guess it would have been better to increase the priority of the rather
unique application/x-foxmail magic to something above 50.
I would suggest
* Give the application/x-foxmail magic priority 60.
* Set the text/html magic priority back to 50.
* Split the application/xml magics into two and set the priority of the "file
starts with comment" magic to something lower than 50 (not that strong
indicator of XML).
I can provide a patch if desired.
