Wouldn't it be better to take the mime-type from KDE, and give it to the
trader? I.e. the .mcopclass file for MP3PlayObject looks like this:

Interface=MP3PlayObject,Arts::PlayObject,Arts::SynthModule,Arts::Object
Author="Martin Vogt <mvogt@rhrk.uni-kl.de>"
URL="http://mpeglib.sourceforge.net"
Extension=mp3,mp1,mp2
MimeType=audio/x-mp3,audio/x-mp1,audio/x-mp2
Library=libarts_mpeglib.la

So it should be possible to query for "MimeType" directly. If there are
entries missing in the .mcopclass files, we'd better add them there than
going the hackish way to produce a suitable extension in noatun.

   Cu... Stefan
