Why did we want to use a new file extension .manifest in appcache.
Wouldn't it be better to to just use a XML file instead, one benefit is
eliminating the requirement of specifying MIME type in .htaccess.
XML would be much too complex for what is needed. We could possibly remove
the media type check and resort to using the "CACHE MANIFEST" identifier
(i.e. "sniffing"), but the HTTP gods will get angry.
