bogus mime types

Actually, Netsite does that. It defines internal types such as
magnus-internal/cgi for CGI programs and magnus-internal/directory for
directories. It's a little brutal but it works, and it's very flexible.

You then specify what internal function, HTML file, or CGI program you
want to use to respond to requests of that type, on a per-resource
basis.
