Checks whether file_info is of the given mime_type or whether the MIME-type of file_info is a subclass of mime_type.

This is the preferred way for most extensions to check whether they support a given file or not, and you should consider using this method rather than Thunarx.FileInfo.get_mime_type(). A simple example would be a menu extension that performs a certain action on text files. In this case you want to check whether a given Thunarx.FileInfo refers to any kind of text file, not only to "text/plain" (e.g. this also includes "text/xml" and "application/x-desktop").

But you should be aware that this method may take some time to test whether mime_type is valid for file_info, so don't call it too often.
