    Description

      The MimeTypes.forName() method currently has special-case code that auto-sets a mimetype's supertype (parent) to be text/plain if the mimetype name starts with "text/".

      Likewise, it should auto-set the supertype to be "application/xml" if the mimetype name ends with "+xml".
