MimeDetect 6.x-1.2 returns "application/octet-stream" for a .bz2 archive. It would be great to have this type supported.

On my system (Ubuntu 9.10), the command file --brief --mime example.bz2 returns application/x-bzip2; charset=binary.

Extension .tbz2 is also concerned, because .tar.bz2 can be written .tbz2.

The selected file bz2linux.bz2 could not be uploaded. The file contents (application/x-bzip2) do not match its extension (bz2).
