I agree.  It *can* be used as an indicator of the first processor to
be handed the document (after the one dispatched from the media type),
but it need not as we've seen.

FWIW, my new media type will require that content expects that it will
be processed in this manner.  But */xml and */*+xml don't have any
such requirement.
