Makes sense. I wonder why it was changed in the past? It used to try
unzipping and check if it failed. Markus?

#39: r.in.srtm fails to validate zip files

Comment (by kyngchaos):
I guess my main concerns are:
* the "--mime" flag is standard on modern systems - it looks like
it.
* I've noticed that people tend to avoid the double-dash long
versions of
flags, but I don't know if there is a technical reason other than
less
typing. In this case it avoids confusion in the -i/-I short flag.
If there are no objections to "--mime", I'll patch r.in.srtm.
I'd suggest skipping the use of "file" altogether. It isn't a standard
utility on Windows.
I would assume that the filename ending in .zip is at least prima
facie evidence of the file actually being a ZIP file.
