If all browsers have fallback, maybe? Also for <input type=file>?

If you think about it, it actually sounds like some sort of a privacy issue. If the MIME type is not empty (for non-browser-supported file types), it means that the user has an application installed.
(Of course, that would not be the only thing that exposes this information - https://github.com/WICG/get-installed-related-apps/blob/master/EXPLAINER.md and https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj154912(v=vs.85).aspx in a way and probably more)

That's a good point to not trust the OS metadata, though that might also lead to regressions I suspect.
