Marc-Andre Lemburg added the comment:

Christian: I think adding MIME types falls under platform support and we do 
still add platform support to Python 2.7.

That said, the mimetypes module *does* use platform files for determining MIME 
types, so adding missing MIME types there will likely result in a more usable 
overall system :-)

In other words: the problem is not really in Python's module, which only 
provides a bare minimum of MIME types, but in the system setup of your system, 
Anatoly.
