Bleh... Nevermind... 45 seconds after I posted, I figured out to grep
for text/html in the *.el files, and found it, and now my:

    mm-discouraged-alternatives's value is 
    ("text/html" "text/richtext")

Thanks to all who thought to respond in the past 5 minutes. :)

Second question - if I WANTED to see the text/html now, could I? :)
