Is this a question or a statement? If it is a question, then I believe it is ill-posed. We actually would like to modify the built-in mechanism to make it more of a mailcap parser with few very specific overrides, instead of making it even more elaborated. There are many problems with the current implementation. For instance, it is not possible to extend the defaults, only override the whole file. A variation of this problem causes issues upon upgrades. All in all this ended up a NIH re-implementation of mailcap which causes duplication of the configuration and doesn't bear substantial advantages. So if this is in fact a statement, we would rather appreciate help with re-doing it, instead of making it even more elaborate and increase duplication. -- Sincerely yours, Yury V.
