+ * Multiple types are supported, and receivers should handle mixed types
+ * whenever possible. The right way for the receiver to check them is to
+ * use the content resolver on each URI. The intent sender should try to
+ * put the most concrete mime type in the intent type, but it can fall
+ * back to {@literal <type>/*} or {@literal *}/* as needed.

* Optional standard extras, which may be interpreted by some recipients as
