Hi Martin, Thanks for the extremely prompt response. Unfortunately, it appears that Application#getMimeType isn't called for UrlResourceStream resources - UrlResourceStream#getData calls URLConnection#getContentType, at which point we've entrusted the mime-type to Java.
Versions I should have included in my first email: I'm using Wicket 6.9.1, using the Jetty server referenced in the quickstart.
