Interesting. I can probably adjust my MUA to send "text/x-patch",
but I'll have to look around to see where that's determined.
(I dislike using "application/octet-stream" for this, because
the archives won't show that as text, they only let you download
the attachment. Maybe that's more Safari's fault than the
archives per se, not sure.)
