That will break "rpm -V" of the file package.  Doesn't /etc/magic work?
Modifying that instead of the /usr/share one would sound better, but
even better than that would be an /etc/magic.d or somesuch dir where
packages could just drop their additions in.  RFE in Bugzilla if such a
thing doesn't yet exist?

The fedora-packaging list might be more appropriate, but people here
probably don't mind.
