[File] Adding text/gemtext to file

Hi,

I’m working on a Gemini/Web browser called Offpunk ( https://offpunk.net 
).

As it saves every ressource to a local cache, it heavily relies on file 
to get the format, which is working fine 99,9% of the time.

The main problem is that "file" seems to have no knowledge of 
text/gemtext format , used in the Gemini network.

See : https://geminiprotocol.net/docs/gemtext-specification.gmi

Gemtext is most of the time assumed as plaintext or markdown (which is 
fine) but it is also sometimes considered as something more exotic (like 
message/news ).

Is there a way to add text/gemtext support to file?

Thanks,
