Frank,

I do not know how much framework vs. implementation. I think that it could be nice if we can do:
  - register a mime handler to test maker runtime.
  - test maker will invoke the handler to get the content and invoke custom implementation to handle the mime type.

In my case, all I need is to 
   1. run the descryption to make sure that the encrypted binary is not corrupted.
   2. or run a MD5 check sum to accopmplish a quich check for binary corruption.

I believe that there are more things to do in the mimetype handler.

Thanks,

- b
