As per title, files of the the correct XSLT 2 MIME-type "application/xslt+xml" (http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt20/#media-type-registration) can't be viewed in the browser like those of "text/xsl" can.

Reproducible: Always
Can you provide an example url?
Sure, here's a directory of examples : http://l0x.in/xml/xsl/
This looks to be a duplicate of Bug 155730
We will call it that for now...

Given that we're pretty likely to wontfix bug 155730, it might make more sense to mark this dependent instead...
Status: RESOLVED → UNCONFIRMED
Depends on: */*+xml
Resolution: DUPLICATE → ---
And in particular it's quite doable to make this one type be treated as XML, and it might well be desirable to do so.
At first glance I'd prefer to fix bug 155730. But if that really isn't happening then I guess hardcoding this mimetype (and a bunch of other ones) is ok...
I guess no point in keeping this an UNCO in Firefox:general, then.
