public class MimeType extends Object implements Comparable<MimeType>, Serializable
This class, however, does not contain support for the q-parameters used
in HTTP content negotiation. Those can be found in the sub-class
org.springframework.http.MediaType in the spring-web module.
Consists of a type and a subtype.
Also has functionality to parse media types from a string using
valueOf(String). For more parsing options see MimeTypeUtils.

For instance, text/* is compatible with text/plain,

includes(org.springframework.util.MimeType), except that it is symmetric.
