Description
Some svn clients seem to set svn:mime-type=text/plain for non-binary files by default. Currently this causes the trac browser syntax coloring (at least using pygments in 0.11) to indeed render those files as plain text without any syntax coloring.
I would argue that for text/plain as the most generic text mime-type, the desired behaviour should be to fall back on detecting a more specific mime-type with the usual mechanisms (file extension etc.)

The problem with this is how do you explicitly force something to be plain text? This sounds like a bug in whatever subversion client you are using.
