This is now fixed. MD will show mime types for which there is a custom
options panel defined, and users can also manually register them.

Yes. Right now there is no way of setting the default settings for a
specific mime type.

You should define those settings as a policy set. I've seen you added
them to the Mono policy set, but you should create a PEP8 policy set.
Unfortunately, there is no way of setting the default policy set.
