It's been many moons since I last looked at email attachements in any
detail, so I have some questions.

With this patch, what happens if someone is emailing using an old
version of Emacs?  Does that matter, or is this stuff based only on the
file ending?  IOW, I'm asking if it is backwards-compatible to remove
"text/org", in either direction.  Will .org files be displayed in the
same way as before or not on both new and old versions?

I've noticed on my machine that .org files have been interpreted as
application/vnd.lotus-organizer.  Presumably that's due to some local
configuration in /etc/mime.types on my distro.  Is that correct?  Is it
documented somewhere how to override that system configuration in Emacs?

But thinking about this more, why not do that unconditionally for users?
Lotus Organizer is dead, long gone, and not really relevant to anyone,
certainly not to the overwhelming majority of Emacs users.  On the off
chance that someone is opening such files from Emacs, they could just
revert that locally.  WDYT?
