I need a way to determine the mime content-type of a given file. I was
quite surprised that I couldn't find an API call for that. The only
things I found were in the http deamon and src/misc/image.c
Or did I miss something?

What would be an appropriate place to move it to? A new module
in include/ and src/misc/ ?

The alternative would be rely on libmagic, which would add another
dependency though.

Kind regards,
Angelo
