Comment:

 I uploaded several files from my Google Disk - .docx and .xlsx and some of
 them have correct mime types and were uploaded fine and some of them have
 this duplicated string. I opened .xlsx file in Excel and resaved it, and
 it got the correct mime type. I wonder if we need to make a workaround for
 errors which were made by some other tool instead of addressing the source
 of this thing — Google Docs or any function/library they are using while
 saving a file as .docx or .xlsx. All .pptx filed I tried were uploaded
 successfully, but it doesn't mean that this can be the case also.

 Solution is questionable and patch is not ready. And if there will be a
 patch, I believe that it will need Unit test as well. So, I am moving this
 ticket for 6.4 for further consideration.
