Regrettably, there still isn’t one registered for Markdown. If my reading of [RFC 4288] is correct, John shouldn’t have any trouble registering eg. `text/vnd.daringfireball.markdown` using the application form at <http://www.iana.org/cgi-bin/mediatypes.pl>. (Most of the “mandatory” fields in that form apply only to MIME types registered in the standards tree, not the vendor tree.)
I'm willing to do this, but I don't think I'm familiar enough with the associated RFCs to fill out the form accurately.
Here's the thing, though: (a) To my eyes, "text/x-markdown" looks a lot better than "text/vnd.daringfireball.markdown"; and (b) I don't have to do a damn thing for "text/x-markdown".
What exactly would be the practical benefits over just using "text/x- markdown"?
