Yeah, it's simple, just use something like this:
  <map:match pattern="uploaded/**">
    <map:read src="uploaddir/{1}"/>
  </map:match>

It will work properly, but there is a problem with mime-type. I think, there is
no good method, just do matches for common types (and there set mime-type) and
use above match.

Yah that should work fine. The only issue would be you should be able to 
determine or extract the resource directory name from request if you 
store your resources by type.

I have images and audio files of different kind under my images/ and 
audio/ directories so I  go simplest route of different matchers for 
them.  Can I do it any other way more efficiently? Can I match using 
mime types?

If i recall correctly, this common matching could be configured in
cocoon/WEB-INF/web.xml ?
Or what is purpose of those <mime-mapping>s ?
