Have you tried mouse-3 on a mime-tag recently?

I will say that the documentation is lacking, and many features can be 
spruced up, but as Morioka-san has done a good job, considering the
differences between all the APIs he has to support. If my plate ever
empties itself (HAH!) I would be interested in lending a hand, but
that won't be anytime soon.
