Sounds like a good idea. Can you provide a link to a mapping of mime-types to user-friendly names? Tried, was not successful finding anything useful, just mappings between MIME and file extension. My suggestion would be something like text/plain --> Text text/html --> HTML application/xml --> XML image/gif --> GIF image/jpeg --> JPEG image/png --> PNG application/octet-stream --> Other (Binary) Mylyn has been restructured, and our issue tracking has moved to GitHub [1].

Task attachments have those types saying ("image/png") and especially "application/octet-stream" This might be odd for some users and should have some pretty names. The text and image ones could stay since they sound self explanatory. But why not use something like "other (binary)" instead of application/octet-stream?
