Well, it can't be solved because this is how QMimeDatabase works, it always
readds the "main glob pattern" (i.e. the first glob pattern in the system-wide
.xml file); that's been the case since around 2012.

And that also seems what other tools are doing:
gio info libvlccore.so.123 | grep standard::content-type
  standard::content-type: application/vnd.lotus-1-2-3

What we can do is change the filetypes KCM to echo what the QMimeDatabase is
enforcing, i.e. disallow removing the first glob pattern in the list...
