Our documentation for MIME type passing is here:
http://www.w3.org/wiki/WebIntents/MIME_Types.

Due to FileEntry not being serializable, we've used blobs for this. I think for
View a Blob works fine in general, but given the context, a FileEntry is a
better choice. I'd suggest passing a different type name to make sure the app
can receive both types of intents.

Greg: I want to make sure I understand properly: do you mean don't put the MIME
type, but instead something fixed like "fileentry/"?

Also, after reading the linked documentation (thanks!) I think I'll add a
filename field as well as it will be quite useful.

[Greg Billock, 2012/05/21 14:25:34]

Right. We don't really have a limitation on the type string, but so far we're
namespacing as MIME-types (which should really be mime types), or urls (for
microdata compat). For a FileEntry, perhaps put something using the chrome
extension url prefix, and then just "fileentry"?
