Yes, it would, but it's also a textual content type. These are rather
unproblematic. One thing that is not yet implemented is a highlighter interface
for different kinds of code as content model.
Non-text content that mediawiki already uses:
* gadget definitions
* sidebar definition
* license list for uploads
* book sources
* list of templates that indicate a disambiguation
* etc...
Would be nice to convert some of them to actual non-text content models, just
for testing. I don't want to commit to that at the moment though, I doubt I'll
find the time.
