yes - I had seen the Debian bug report a while back, but not noticed the
comment about stdin (different part) til recently.  So I read more about
mailcap (which info I didn't have handy way-back-when), and could see the
pieces that would be doable.  It's still not completely general - I see
that the comparison for mailcap doesn't treat multiple blanks in a shell
command the same as a single, but it seems to work (barring the chunk that
I lost in the last iteration - I moved the %s fallback inside that function
just to cleanup).

The first time mailcap came up, it was mainly an issue with the tests,
which Klaus fixed - so I read the bug report a little more carefully
this time to see why it was still not closed.
