Several issues: 

1) The doc was obviously generated by external tools, and violates the spec in
several (somewhat subtle) points. In particular, the manifest is missing, and
the mimetype stream is not at the beginning of the file.

2) We *used* to read such files just fine, which *I* thought was a good feature.
My understanding is that in recent versions the type detection became stricter
(mba said as much in [EMAIL PROTECTED]), and does not recognize such files any 
longer.
I'm not sure if and to what extend that is considered a bug or feature, although
my preference is quite clearly on the former.

1) + 2) explains why the file no longer loads.

3) There is no user visible error message. The file simply doesn't load, and
nothing else happens. I guess this would be a usability problem, at least.



dvo->mba: As said above, I don't know how much of the above is bug or feature.
Please decide, and forward/handle as appropriate. Thanks.

dvo->drichard: "our beta testers"???
