Well, the problem with that was that they appended the version string on
the end of the name, so nobody uses it anymore (WordPerfect is up to
version 11 now--5.1 was only for DOS and Unix CLI). It's too bad it was
registered that way, but it's too late now, so I figured I'd submit this.
Also, RFC 2048 encourages re-registering grandfathered media types, so
what the heck.
