 Hi everyone,

 This is probably a feature that not many developers out there will use but
 I think it would be nice to have.

 One of my plugins uses `wp_add_inline_script` to inject an inline script
 into the page. Said inline script gets assigned `text/javascript` as type
 automatically and there doesn't seem to be a way to change that (if there
 is please let me know and I'll gladly close this ticket.)

 My plugin needs said inline script to contain a JSON string and so it
 currently hooks into `script_loader_tag` to change its type to
 `application/json` which feels a bit like a hack. It would be nice if we
 could set the script type via parameter (eg. `wp_add_inline_script( 'some-
 handle', '...', 'before', 'application/json' );`) (or maybe via filter
 hook before `script_loader_tag` happens?)

 Thoughts?
