KMail guesses the mime type of any file you attach (via KMimeMagic). Since 
it's often wrong I want to have a  combo box with all the alternatives.

BTW, KMimeMagic is often wrong because I attach short diffs, which leads to
text/x-c, test/x-c++ or even text/c-java (all for C++ diffs). Maybe we can 
change KMimeMagic so it uses the file's extension if there is any (at least 
optionally). Opinions?
