Comment (by kevin8t8):
The problem with this patch is that it moves the mime_lookup checks after
the AutoViewList scan. The mime_lookup needs to run first so it can
potentially modify the mime type using the extension.
Perhaps a mutt_check_lookup_list() call could be added just before the
AutoViewList for-loop scan? It would be run again by the
rfc1524_mailcap_lookup() but I don't think that's too big a deal.
It might also be worth adding a comment somewhere in there mentioning the
performance regression (and thus why the rfc1524_mailcap_lookup() is run
last).
Also, I'm not really familiar with this part of the code yet, so it would
be good for a more experienced committer to take a look at the revised
patch too.
