[MOBY-l] text-plain and text_plain

I am peeking curiously at the types "text_plain" and "text-plain" in
the Objects ontology. (One uses an underscore and the other uses a
dash, if you weren't able to see the difference straightaway).
Roughly 130 types in the Objects ontology derive from text-plain,
while roughly 50 derive from text_plain. What is the reasoning behind
this division, if any? Is this just a common typo/formatting issue
that we haven't gotten around to dealing with yet? I would classify
this as a pretty substantial annoyance, since it appears to make many
compatible services appear incompatible with one another.
Is there anything I might be able to do straightaway that could
contribute to fixing this, if it indeed needs fixing?
