I'll veer away from my media parcel question and simply ask:

How do you know which client a user is running?

Through an LSL script? I don't think that's possible..

Yep..am afraid of that...

So I could go ahead and write things that will set MIME types.. but it's going to break in older clients.. grrrr

Would be great to have an llClientCapabilities() call, to see what the heck the user's client is capable of supporting.

(hmm.. /etc/termcap, circa 1980.. what could we learn from that?)
