Wandering off into pedantry...

There's no such thing as a "MIME type".  There are "MIME media types", which
are the same as "Media Types", and the latter term is used almost exclusively
in relevant RFCs.  

GStreamer's caps use media types when possible, but also uses a lot of strings
that should never, ever, be used outside of GStreamer.  And there is no
automatic way to determine which is which.
