Comment(by antonio@…):
Important warning: I'm not a mutt-dev.
Your patch does not convince me because you're checking AUTOVIEW and
you're also checking if the auto_view option is set, the same things are
also checked when mutt_needs_mailcap() is called (which is called by
mutt_is_autoview()) so I believe that it doesn't make much sense to check
those options twice.
Your approach is also more oriented to whitelist some things for each
auto_view is not needed but that skips thing like text/xml,
text/rfc822-headers and some other things that you may want to visualize
straight away and that mutt can easily show to you without problems.
I would be more convinced by the patch proposed in #3496 but that also has
the problem that formats like text/rtf would need an autoview entry.
I'm still thinking about what patch would best suit the mutt Debian
package.
