The code for comment #4, will look like this,

includes/MimeMagic.php:

$types = MM_WELL_KNOWN_MIME_TYPES;

if ( $wgMimeTypeFile == 'includes/mime.types' ) {

It should allow specifying files in array like,

$wgMimeTypeFile = array("includes/mime.types", "/etc/mime.types",

"/path/to/custom/mime.types");

Since "includes/mime.types" and "/etc/mime.types" contains many duplicate entries,
it may result in unnecessary work load,
so it should be discouraged to load multiple files like this.

I believe that with $wgMimeTypeFile we have sufficient customization
possibility.

it is insufficient, since we may need to append the customization to the upstream default
