What is the point of this exercise? The document is what happens to be
stored in the file. Saying that a user can turn a user can turn a
Conforming OpenDocument Spreadsheet Document into a non-conforming one
by simply changing the name of the file is just ridiculous! The mimetype
can be deduced from the content of the file so why does one have to
specify that the name of the file (or even part of the name).
