> We have a MimeUtils method that returns a MIME type based solely on the name.
> It would be very helpful to also have a method that examines the header as
> well. I've added a method (patch coming) that does this. It opens a stream
> from the URL, reads the header, closes the stream, and then calls the
> existing method.
> This may not be usable in the course of parsing, since it violates our
> decision to read a stream only once. However, it is very useful as a way to
> test our MIME type determination, and as a non-parse service to our users (as
> recently discussed on the forum).
