Gnus seems to display application/zip and application/tar by default. This doesn't seem desirable so we override it. We only override ifthe user has not customized mm-inline-override-types themselves. --- This was mentioned on irc today and this might be a reasonable way of doing this. It does mean that if a user adds, for example, image/* to mm-inline-override-types then application/* will be displayed again. It also makes it slightly awkward to allow all types (eg setting mm-inline-override-types to non/existent would do). Also I feel there ought to be a better way to tell if a variable has been customized (or otherwise set), but I didn't find one.
