I thought these were MIME types, rather than GStreamer specific ?
application was chosen because it's semantically (mostly) text, but not
actual text, so text/x-kate was out.

As for subtitle/x-kate, generic handling by some element that would try
to use 'subtitle/*' wouldn't work due to the binary encoding, so there's
not much gain to this. Moreover, subtitles are just one possible use.
If this media type is GStreamer specific, then you could change it, but
I think it would create confusion with the MIME type as saved in, eg,
the Skeleton track by ffmpeg2theora.
