 The datastore and the clipboard are relying on the ability to go from a
 mime type to an extension. This is not supported by xdgime. The problem
 with using /etc/mime.types is that it duplicates xdgmime somewhat, it's
 incomplete and can't be extended. We need either to find a way to not rely
 on the mapping or figure out a good solution for it.

 I think this is important for 1.0.
