I've got an RDF file with XSLT stylesheet attached to it. Whether the file is served as application/rdf+xml or application/xml Firefox displays just its content - not the processing results. However if I just change the extension to .xml everything works ok.

Moreover: said RDF appear in Page Info as having MIME like application/vnd.mozilla.xul+xml

Reproducible: Always
No, it pays no attention to the extension, it's just that RDF gets bizarre special (mis)treatment, for unclear historical reasons.
