Bitcoin is not a vendor, so I doubt that would work.

I doubt we should spend any time on this. The chance of a string collision
is extremely low. The current mime types are fine.

What&#39;s the general feeling on this? Personally I&#39;m in favour of<br>
following the registration process, so register a Bitcoin vendor<br>
namespace with IANA, then allocate MIME types such as:<br>
<br>
application/vnd.bitcoin.payment.request<br>
application/vnd.bitcoin.payment.payment<br>
application/vnd.bitcoin.payment.ack<br>
