Comment (by shfarr):

 I am really sorry about that. I set the mime-type but never checked, as it
 was never necessary. Apparently as the file goes through the download
 process, the type changes back to octet-stream by the time it ends up in a
 file. Whether this is a browser issue or something in between remains to
 be seen. I will need to check.

 On your other line of thought, the "server side fallback" method might be
 a good option. It is a practice for web applications to deliberately set
 the content type to octet-stream to facilitate download over opening the
 file by the browser, which probably creates a lot of mismatched files out
 there.

 'application/x-pkcs12'.
 > Tested within WordPress and directly at the linux shell with
 finfo_file() from PHP 7.0.14.
