Accept chemical/* mime types as valid types
While those mime types are not strictly valid since they were never
accepted by the IANA, they are used by real applications. It's also
well-defined (http://www.ch.ic.ac.uk/chemime/), and used by
real-world applications.
Thanks to Pascal Terjan <pterjan@mandriva.com> for noticing this.
