It mainly works, the only thing I've come across so far is the error
message 'Access denied (GetScrollInfo) (5)' when I try to edit a style.
Which has put me off paying for the full version. I would say that I still
prefer Ovation Pro over Scribus and it's a shame that Ovation Pro can't run
in Linux natively.

The reason I used application/vnd was that I read somewhere that mime types
that start with vnd are unofficial ones.
