Do you really need to go 200 bytes into the file? The further you need
to go into the file, the more expensive it is. I would also add that my
text file mentioning "docbookx.dtd" would get detected as a docbook
file, not good.

That's not good. text/xml files are already detected with *.xml.

You got the gist of it, but it's not commitable.
