Probably they don't, there are also weird roaming cases to consider, where you 
receive MWI, turn phone off, step on a plane and turn phone on with some other 
network entirely.

Can we make the MWI interface smarter somehow?  Perhaps by not enabling it 
unless at least the EFmwis file is available, or by always storing the EFmwis 
contents on the filesystem?
