Well, can you make the text you submitted public?  For example by
posting it here?  If that is impossible, what about using
<URL: https://0bin.net/ > or some other pastebin service, if you have no

The currently used ones are or text/x-diff (most popular) and
text/x-patch.  Would it be impossible to register the first one based on
historic usage?
