Hi,
the .asc extension for PGP files is not really managed well currently. It's only registred for application/pgp-encrypted but people also use it for ASCII signatures and keys.

The same applies for the .gpg and .pgp extensions.

The current behaviour makes it impossible to open a ASCII signature file
from nautilus as the extension and content differ.

Giving the 3 extensions to all 3 types won't give the desired behaviour
in nautilus though, it still believes that the .asc extension maps to
the encrypted files and doesn't want to open the file because extension
and content differ.

My last tests resturn the correct results with standard::content-type
(testcases have been attached). To me this looks like the issue has been
fixed. Setting to resolved/fixed.
