Example media type and subtype

A need has arisen in MMUSIC for a media type to use strictly as an 
example. In the particular case, something like application/example 
would do. Discussion of the matter led to the suggestion that 
registrations be defined for */example (presumably scoped to the 
standards tree only) and a new top-level media type example/*. Since the 
use would be for documentation only, it would seem that there would not 
be much to say in most fields of the registration template.

Comments?
