Ok, I think I understand the problem, but I don't know a solution, sorry.
My understanding is 'mate' is simply a wrapper which passes the parameters to TextMate, which then loads all of its bundles, and only at this point would it know what filetypes it has bundle handling for. Maybe Allan will chip in with some workaround
Is there no way you could just identify the filetype before you start piping it, and then pass that to textmate (and just assume it has handling for it, otherwise it will default to text)?

Yes, and no.
I would like to know which (common) ones are possible, or how I can find that (which ones are installed/available) out, so that if I use "mate -" in a pipe I can "load" the required bundle and make use of its facilities without having to resort to selecting filetype with the mouse.
Probably something of use to others as well.
greetings, el

mate -h does not show any list of <filetypes>
Yes sorry, I realised as soon as I'd sent it, that I'd misread your question :(
But list of supported filetypes, isn't that just going to be determined by what bundles you have installed?
