No nbproject. Even worse, it's an XSLT file which *results* in something
like a config, without anything making it possible to use a MimeResolver.

Yes. I've already thought about using a java implemented mime resolver
(like in "good old times" ;-) ), but AFAIK, declarative resolvers have
higher precedence, so my file will be resolved as an xsl file anyway.
Also, I don't know if NB will work well, if I had to ask for the project
owning the file before mime resolution.
