    <thetext>&quot;4.8.5 The object element

...

The type  attribute, if present, specifies the type of the resource. If present, the attribute must be a valid MIME type, optionally with parameters.&quot;

But &quot;valid MIME type&quot; is defined earlier on as 

&quot;A string is a valid MIME type if it matches the media-type rule defined in section 3.7 &quot;Media Types&quot; of RFC 2616. [HTTP]&quot;

...which already allows parameters.</thetext>
