From the evidence (several different global mimetype directories, each with
distinct syntax, and even in the very same user folder, a good bunch of
different naming schemes, plus the mentioned unused relicts) it appears that
they changed it over and over, and - in spite of freedesktop recommended specs
- there's yet no common line in all linux apps and it's for sure not something
you could fix in any case.
I think the best you could do ATM is to follow Gnome, or get rid of it all by
using a internal map file.
