I don't know if Piggy Bank still has problems with Firefox grabbing  
application/rdf+xml files before it can get to them, but if it does  
then this might be useful:
http://utils.ning.com/firefox/
Basically that extension does:
var httpChannel = subject.QueryInterface 
(Components.interfaces.nsIHttpChannel);
if (httpChannel.contentType == 'application/atom+xml') {
        httpChannel.contentType = 'text/xml';
}
so you could presumably use something like it to change 'application/ 
rdf+xml' into 'application/piggybank+xml' and associate Piggy Bank  
with that new MIME type.
Having said that, from 
http://simile.mit.edu/issues/browse/ 
PIGGYBANK-12 it looks like Firefox might grab the data even earlier,  
so this wouldn't work.
