Currently, some browsers will automatically download the file regardless of the file suffix/missing mime type, but this behavior is not consistent. A quick test here shows Safari and IE5 display code; Netscape and Mozilla ask what you want to do with the file; Opera automatically downloads. It is actually quite easy to option-click links in Safari/IE to acquire files, though providing a ZIP might be considered more universally accessible.
