def register_alias(string, symbol, extension_synonyms = [])

rendering different HTML versions depending on the user agent, like an iPhone.
Registers an alias that's not used on mime type lookup, but can be referenced directly. Especially useful for

  register(string, symbol, [], extension_synonyms, true)
