I just declared a default view intent-filter for archive mime-types...
and this is GMail which is calling my Activity, providing a content://
Uri to the attachment.
When I try to open that attachment, I am now asked for a permission...
this is quite odd.

My code is called the same way by any other app which is able to offer
to open this kind of file (like file managers).

I did not use any GMail specific private API.
