I'm afraid the current implementation is rather simple and relies on MIME
types.
But there have been some developments in this area and even a patch set you
could use:
https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-1096
https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/BitstreamFormat+Renovation
https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/BitstreamFormat+Renovation+Use+Cases
Hope that helps. I don't know much about preservation, either.
