My understanding is that the plugin sends mime types (it has to) to the
browser regardless of whether use-mimetypes is set, but enabling that
option just reads the mplayerplug-in.types file to determine which file
formats to accept. 
Out of curiosity, does disabling use-mimetypes again still allow the
proper options to show up in the browser preferences?
