Files .docx/.xlsx/.pptx created/edited in LibreOffice are not detected as MS Office files

Description

Files saved in the "2007-2013 XML" format by LibreOffice? have different file type reported by file (file 1:5.32-2ubuntu0.1, Ubuntu 18.04 Bionic Beaver) and are therefore not detected as MS Office documents by mc.ext:

test.docx: Microsoft OOXML
test.pptx: Microsoft OOXML
test.xlsx: Zip archive data, at least v2.0 to extract

(I will file a separate bug at Launchpad or Debian regarding the xlsx file)

For a file created by the real MS Office I get

ms-office.docx: Microsoft Word 2007+

There are two possibilities to fix it:

  1. Add something like this to mc.ext.in 
type/^Microsoft\ OOXML
        Open=@EXTHELPERSDIR@/doc.sh open ooffice
  1. Detect the files by regex/i.

Which fix is better?
