Description:
------------
Could you extend this class to use a file extension based lookup as the default method instead of failing if the other methods don't work? You could get the list of mime types / extensions from the file associated with the Apache web server.
I have attached a patch giving this support.

The manual detection would need to be in an own class - not in MIME_Type. It would be cool if you would provide a patch with that, or I'd delay that feature to PEAR2's mime_type package.

I moved the detection into a class of its own as requested and added a few more extensions.
I think this would be a useful feature. I am looking for an extension-to-MIME-type-mapping for use with the Services_Amazon_S3 package. Note that also PHP_Archive and File_Archive implement such a mapping - but if this feature is added to MIME_Type, they can use that instead of maintaining their own mapping.
