D13315: Detect mime type of local files based on their contents

  (BTW thanks for what you said about FUSE, I agree 100% and it makes me glad to see some people from the opposite camp, when so many people are trying to convince me that network mounts via FUSE is the solution to all problems on earth, see bug 75324)
  
  > currentMimeType() method shouldn't do any detection. It's very misleading
  
  I disagree. This is what's called determination on demand, quite a classic pattern.

  You skipped the fact that if there are multiple candidates, we first try to sort it out using content detection.
  Only if that fails, will we then pick the first mimetype in the list, for lack of any other information. Again, see the MIME spec.
