content window can handle text/html just like a browser window content
listener. However, if the user clicks on a link with text/html content,
we'd like the browser window to handle that content and not the mail window
where the user may have clicked the link. That's why we have isPreferred.

you want the content directly as aContentType

is a decision made by a top level application content listener that sits at the
