Darien others replied about CSP but also `script-src data: unsafe-inline`
would work as well. There is no evaluation, or at least, nothing different
from loading static content there (OK, the dynamic import could be a
different story, yet if pre-processed I don't see it as useful, but surely
one day someone will prove me wrong ^_^;; ).

About IANA vs HTML, I think both should be supported, specially because
IANA states text/javascript is deprecated and most developers serve JS via
application/javascript, or JSON as  application/json (and there is no
text/json).

WebKit / Safari handles both cases without issues, Chrome chokes on the
application/javascript but it's IMO a non sense to allow one but not the
other, so I've filed a bug:
https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=854370
