Actually we don't support .cur and .ico decoding from javafx image io. Please see JDK-8092240 and JDK-8134547.

+1 I guess you can run unit test cases related to image decoding to see any side effect.

These changes comes into action only for the local files(jar:, file:), not for the downloaded contents from http server. I don't see any impact because of this change. Also 'image/x-icon' is already added in supported image format, Please see http://hg.openjdk.java.net/openjfx/10-dev/rt/file/c38fbae55fc8/modules/javafx.web/src/main/native/Source/WebCore/platform/MIMETypeRegistry.cpp#l229

Is there any possible behavior change with changing from image/ico to image/x-icon? One place (a blog post I think) suggested that image/x-icon is correct if the format actually in icon (.ico) format, but that image/ico is correct if you are passing a png or jpg file as an icon or cursor. Here is the link: https://perishablepress.com/everything-you-ever-wanted-to-know-about-favicons/

So then the question will be whether to retain the existing behaviour or not ? May be Kevin can clarify..

image/x-icon seems to be correct according to various internet sources, https://github.com/paulirish/html5-boilerplate/commit/37b5fec090d00f38de64b591bcddcb205aadf8ee https://stackoverflow.com/questions/13827325/correct-mime-type-for-favicon-ico https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ICO_(file_format)#MIME_type

One query: Looks like the new change overridden the below: But looks like image/ico OR image/icon is still widely used. Any thoughts on this? From : mimeTypeMap.put("ico", "image/ico"); mimeTypeMap.put("cur", "image/ico"); To mimeTypeMap.put("ico", "image/x-icon"); mimeTypeMap.put("cur", "image/x-icon");

http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~arajkumar/8186148/webrev Other than adding few MIME types, removed duplicate mapping which present in Java side. Implementation is adopted from MIMETypeRegistryGtk.java.
