But this breaks handling of HTML for browsers that only rely on the
extension or the content-type header (Netscape being the biggest one!).
Maybe adding a META HTTP-EQUIV tag to each HTML page with the Content-Type
set to text/html would cure this, but surely it's better to rely on the HTTP
headers (after all, that's what they're there for) to tell the browser what
to do? In this example NS appears to be the only browser working correctly -
it doesn't treat the page as HTML because the content-type indicates it's
plain text and therefore should not be handled as HTML.
