This wish request is related to Emacs EWW and Org mode.

Please make EWW recognize Org file when served by WWW server. Currently
it does not recognize the MIME type text/x-org and opens the file as
text, it does not invoke the org mode. In my opinion, it should.

Inspect following file by using lynx:

$ lynx -head https://gnu.support/files/tmp/example.org

uHTTP/1.1 200 OK
Server: nginx/1.14.2
Date: Tue, 25 Oct 2022 12:04:26 GMT
Content-Type: text/x-org
Content-Length: 364
Last-Modified: Tue, 25 Oct 2022 11:58:22 GMT
Connection: close
ETag: "6357cf5e-16c"
Accept-Ranges: bytes

One can see that Content-Type is text/x-org

My expectation is that EWW opens the Org file served by WWW server in
Org mode. But it doesn't. Can this be done?

This will open opportunity to directly serve Org files by using WWW
servers and to browse such files through Emacs, meaning, bunch of notes,
tasks and similar may be kept online, with or without protection and
directly accessed by Emacs. It becomes new area or WWO or World Wide Org
environment.
