Comment 8 for bug 1125514

Thanks Sebastian! Currently my sketches in <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwarePackageOperations#searching> show only Mime types only, not human-readable names for types. I thought that if the OS doesn't have any software installed for a type, probably it doesn't know a human-readable name for the type either. After all, /etc/mime.types includes only Mime types and their corresponding filename suffixes, not human-readable names. (Maybe there is a list with human-readable names somewhere else?)

It would be nice to show the human-readable name as well, if we know it. So, I've defined a "file type string" for use in the UI, being the Mime type, plus the human-readable name in brackets if known. <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwarePackageOperations?action=diff&rev2=27&rev1=25> Does that look good to you?

Apart from that string, though, whether we know a human-readable name for the Mime type shouldn't make any difference to whether -- or how -- we offer to install an application for that Mime type.
