ROX-Lib: getting MIME type from text/data in memory

It would be useful if ROX-Lib2's mime module had a function similar to
get_type_by_contents() but which works on text/data already loaded into
memory instead of loading the data, given a pathname. 

I'm writing a text editor and currently I'll either have to reimplement
large chunks of Mime.py or have it load an extra copy (or at least
however much of it the implementation requires) of a file already in
memory.
