Possible, yes. We had some discussions about that problem. But
media-types x-* are also not registered nor known (AFAIK).

No. IMHO this is not a good idea.

The big problem is: Chemical MIME types have never been officially
registered with IANA, but they are well known [1]. Servers deliver such
files as chemical/*. I don't want to change this. I know, this is like
walking on a peak, but I have no better idea.
[1] The work of this package is based on the list from
http://www.ch.ic.ac.uk/chemime/.
