Unusual mime types. How are these detected?
I could be wrong, but I suspect these are an artefact of the way some open source desktop environments work - you associate document MIME types with an application MIME type. Even though there might not be a document MIME type in this case, you need something for each of the apps. The x- prefix means this is a local non-standard extension, which seems reasonable.

Perhaps they just want to let you authenticate with some MS account instead of Facebook etc etc. Dunno.
