Or

<alternative>
<part charset="iso-8859-1">
This is plaïn.
<part type=text/enriched?
This is clearly not plain.
<part type=image/gif external="~/rms.gif">
</alterntive>

The nice thing about this is that more people know HTML than TeXinfo.
(No, that's not a nice thing per se, but, like.)

Besides, that means that one can just do

<part type=image/gif external="~/rms.gif"></part>

to include an image in the middle of a text piece.  (Yes, we do end
tag minimization (or whatever it's called).)  And parts that aren't
explicitly marked are text/plain, and stuff.
