  With GLV-1.12556, you can specify the MIME type of a file via it's
extension.  This will override the normal method of detecting the MIME type
by looking at the contents.  As a side-effect, you can also specify the
language parameter.

  GLV-1.12556 doesn't do this (yet) but another option is to have the server
lookg for a configuration option to always set the languate parameter to a
known value.
