If you don't know what it is used for why are you so opposed? We have

If the formats are identical, then creating a brand-new MIME type is
unnecessary complication. Server adminstrators who want to serve up
.bundle files for both Mandriva and Mageia then have to deal with
sending different two MIME types for files with the same extension.
Not true! The only thing to deal with is shipping files with the same extension.
  The MIME
type in /etc/mime.types is guaranteed to be wrong for one distribution
or the other. And so on.
Not true.
  But it's an academic argument if this type
isn't actually used for anything.
The only academic thing is overwriting x-mga-* or x-mdv-* by a 3rd party source.
