Is there a possibility to catch a generic "application/xml"? It seems this is displayed in the browser in raw format, and it does not try the ACTION_VIEW.
Our application would like to handle rss feeds, which should have the mime type "application/rss+xml", and which we can catch through an intent receiver. Unfortunately, most websites simply use the mime type "application/xml" for rss feeds, which will not be forwarded to our application, but will be displayed in the browser. Is there a way to catch "application/xml" MIME types by third party developers?
