Is text/javascript showing up in any HTTP response headers? If so that's a bug
either I or the Stingray[1] team need to fix. If they're showing up inside
<script/> tags then that's because it's "required in order to function properly
for a large number of our visitors" instead of "obsolete", despite what RFC
4329 might say:

[1] www.wireshark.org is currently behind a Stingray Traffic Manager. You can
disable and reenable optimization by appending "?aptimizer=off" and
"?aptimizer=on" to your URL.


Marking it as RESOLVED/LATER. It appears that IE 9 and above support
application/javascript so we just need to wait for the browser market share to
change.
