Paul -

The answer, for the moment, is that your system or browser needs to be 
told to supply a saner content-type when uploading files that end with .md.

The fastest way I've found in OS/X is to tell it to open files ending in 
.md with your favorite text editor.

Teaching the datatracker to just accept octet-stream isn't great as we 
can't then avoid unintentional uploads of things that aren't really a 
text type.
