How was it fixed?

It was fixed in a way that covers mis-sniffed feed content
specifically. That is, content that was sniffed as a feed but isn't
one, like that Atom template or some FOAF files, are displayed
correctly. These are edge cases.

Both so that Ian's eventual text can be consistent
with the fix, and for my edification as I would love to be able to
directly view my test cases again:

Your test cases are a different bug: "correctly" sniffed feeds that
you don't want sniffed. Unfortunately, I can't agree that the MIME
type "text/plain" carries as strong a message as it used to.

It would be possible to turn off sniffing for some 'text/plain' values
if there were a better indicator available. For example, by using a
new Content-Disposition value (web compatible because unknown values
are treated as 'inline').
