All I can say that is that it doesn't suffice with just simple checks.  There seem to be corner cases that elude the simple checks.  See above for more details.

This patch handles this case by not just using the name for determining the mimetype of the file while loading, but also looking at the contents (KMimeType:findByContents). It also introduces a replacement scheme to take care of reported mimetypes like application/zip instead of, say, docx.
