I don't see problems with RTSP URIs. Browsers AFAIK ATM aren't able to show RTSP without external applications.
I wanted to know if it is possible to use xdg-mime to list applications (media players) which are able to play stream using HTTP. Now I know that I can't do that with shared mime info because they had to be able to handle every content type (or delegate it like browsers do).
