file/libmagic's mime types and mime-policy



Hi.

I'm not sure mime-policy is in excellent shape (#89038 still not
solved), but I wonder if there shouldn't be a mention of libmagic/file's
database in there... 

I'm not sure file/libmagic would allow other packages to install some
mime detection definitions in its /usr/share/file/magic/ dir, for
instance... but as file/libmagic is a dependency of many other apps, I'm
thinking this may need some documentation in the policy somehow.

Any comments ?

Best regards,
