In an extremely round-about manner, WebKit's list of MIMEtypes that show as
HTML corresponds to the MIMETypeRegistry::isSupportedNonImageMIMEType() list

That list includes many text/* mime types, including -
      "text/html",
      "text/xml",
      "text/xsl",
      "text/plain",
      "text/"

That list includes things we want to create a TextDocument for, and not an
HTMLDocument.  But a TextDocument in WebCore speak still displays as an HTML
document via a WebHTMLView in WebKit-land.

So we're in a dill of a pickle here - how to maintain the dual-concept of
"Shows as HTML" at the WebKit API level, and "TextDocument vs HTMLDocument"
down in WebCore?
