I think data-urls are allowed to have no content-type. Just like http requests can return no content-type header.
A difference is that if HTTP returns no content-type header then the type is sniffed, whereas a data: URI with no media-type is treated as text/plain. This is specified in RFC 2397 and implemented at least in Opera, Gecko, Safari, and Chrome.
