State-Changed-Why: 
Thanks for trying to improve FreeBSD, albeit one utility at a time!
Actually, as noted in the src/contrib/file/FREEBSD-upgrade file, the
version of the file(1) utility used in FreeBSD is contributed software,
maintained externally by its author Christos Zoulas
<christos@zoulas.com>.  Could you try to contact Christos with your
proposed addition, so it could make its way into the mainstream file(1)
distribution, and be imported into FreeBSD soon after the new version's
release?
