I will refactor the ContentTypeRegistry so it can be powered by a flat data structure of hard-coded content type info, if no service registry is provided.

You can now construct a ContentTypeRegistry without a service registry like this:
> new mContentTypes.ContentTypeRegistry([
>   {	id: "text/plain",
>         name: "Text",
>         extension: ["txt"],
>         imageClass: "file-sprite-text modelDecorationSprite"
>   },
>   {     id: "text/html",
>         "extends": "text/plain",
>         name: "HTML",
>         extension: ["html", "htm"],
>         imageClass: "file-sprite-html modelDecorationSprite"
>   },
>   ...
> ]);

The parameter is an array of ContentType [1] objects.
