I'm inclined to say that that's an issue for the file managers, not the MIME database. The database provides information about MIME types, but it's up to the application how to use that. Specifically, they could: - Detect that file operations are slow over ssl+webdav, and decide not to examine the contents to find MIME types. - Display the list first, and progressively update icons etc. as they gather MIME type information. I hope that helps, Thomas
