[Bug 44523] Re: abiword eats memory (possible OOM) and hangs when opening PDFs

[Sitsofe Wheeler]

Hmm after perusing that file some more I found postscript and pdf appear
to be misclassified.

I think you can just about make the case for RTF being a subtype of
text/plain given that you read it when you strip away the markup in a
text viewer like vi. However binary formats like application/pdf and
application/postscript are no more readable in a text viewer than a
binary MSWord 6 document (and Word documents aren't a subtype of
text/plain).

** Also affects: shared-mime-info (Ubuntu)
     Severity: Normal
     Priority: (none set)
       Status: Unconfirmed
