Jeff pointed out that having bi-diretcional support might be a good idea
in case I should ever want to edit them on a server or re-export them with
another service. I figured it would be work my time too. :-)

I did not want to have it adjust all text/* files because some (uu, hqx,
etc) may be better off not modified. This allows me to specify which
text/? to map over to alter. I may change to text/* over the long term,
but for now, extention specific seems to work rather well 8-D
