OK, I just submitted a pull request for this addition, because I built GeoServer without the MapML module and the text/mapml format does not show up in the capabilities. It's apparent that it was designed to get the info formats from the WMS and check if they exist in the GeoWebCache MimeType definition. Given that with the MapML module installed, the WMS will have the text/mapml format defined, that format shows up appropriately in the GWC WMTS capabilities document.
Seems like it will work. Let me know if there's something that needs attention!
