Hello!
Based on this recent thread, the consensus seems to be that we'd like
the .org file extension to have a dedicated "text/org" MIME type:
https://yhetil.org/orgmode/6d94fff4-4d30-4121-bfd1-f267cb5b637c@gmail.com/
Until the Org syntax spec is complete and a proposal submitted to and
approved by IANA, we can negotiate with downstream MIME libraries to
override "applicaion/vnd.lotus-organizer" with "text/org" on a
case-by-case basis. As Max Nikulin wrote in the thread linked above,
> An alternative is to negotiate with maintainers of mime.types in

Support for "text/org" in <https://github.com/jshttp/mime-db> would let
the Agregore browser (<https://agregore.mauve.moe/>) render Org files.
Then hyperdrive.el users could share Org files to be viewed in Agregore.
John Kitchin opened a PR back in 2017, which was rejected:
https://github.com/jshttp/mime-db/pull/82
After I posted a comment on the thread, the maintainer responded:

I'd like to open a new PR. Would you elaborate on "de facto mimetype"?
Thank you!
