It was just me putting a non-existent viewer into the ~/.mailcap file,
so it was filtered out again later.  So that bit works.

So the issue is really whether we should keep preferring Lisp-based
(internal) viewers over external ones, even though the user has
specified this in ~/.mailcap (or otherwise).

That way of sorting seems to have been in place since 1998.  But is it a
good idea?
