This is a feature.  It allows you to look at textual stuff even if it
has been declared as sumpin' strange, such as
application/octet-stream, or image/gif, or message/rfc822.

Hm.  Maybe it had something to do with textual things with
``Content-Disposition: attachment'', too.  I don't remember.

Doesn't XEmacs already display things inline which it can display
inline?  Then you're using `i' for the wrong purpose.
