Comment (by humdinger):

 I'm not sure in what situations the Haiku project deems an entry in the
 mime-db useful. At the moment, we have no icon for fonts, I think. We also
 have no app that can do something useful with ttf (DiskProbe aside). So,
 adding the mimetype wouldn't really gain anything besides an entry in the
 "Kind" column. Which may be exactly what you're aiming at... Or am I
 missing something?
