Hello. I add all current mime types from Debian`s /etc/mime.types and
send patch to author. It`s applied in 1.29.

This module authtor (Mark Overmeer) writes about /etc/mime.types:

No, I do register all types... however... I should spend more time
in collecting them.  The recent years, I only add types when people
explicitly ask me to.

MIME::Types is system independent, so cannot depend on /etc/mime.types.
It should be rewritten to be more lazy: the table size is exploding.
Translating every line in an object to start with is too expensive.
It's on my (long) list of plans.
