Bug 440752

SUMMARY:

    xdg-mime (and baloo) does not seem to recognise user.mime_type
    extended attributes. These are referenced as a "MAY" in:

        https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/CommonExtendedAttributes/#generalattributesincurrentuse 

    so request flagged as "wishlist" 

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:

    Create a test file with no recognised file extension, check the
    mime type with xdg-mime

        $ echo "Hello Penguin" > testfile.zzz
        $ xdg-mime query filetype testfile.zzz
        text/plain 

    Assign a "preferred" mime_type with setfattr:

        $ setfattr -n user.mime_type -v "text/log" testfile.zzz 

    Check with xdg-mime and balooshow -x

OBSERVED RESULTS

    $ xdg-mime query filetype testfile.zzz
    text/plain

    $ balooshow -x testfile.zzz
