Certainly it is very permissive:

 ("\\`[\t\n\r ]*%!PS" . postscript)

auto-mode-alist (which would've been the one detecting .ps files until
now) contains this:

 ("\\.[eE]?[pP][sS]\\'" . ps-mode)

and `image-file-name-extensions' does not contain `.ps'. So probably
we shouldn't try to identify .ps files as images by default.
