Let me try to explain in my own words.

Consider the following 3 scenarios:

1. clipboard contains 2 MIME types: image/png, image/bmp
2. clipboard contains 1 MIME type: image/png
3. clipboard contains 1 MIME type: image/bmp

We want to handle all three scenarios in the following way:
1. Select image/png (prefer it over image/bmp)
2. Select image/png
3. Select image/bmp (there is no image/png that we would prefer otherwise)

In all three cases, we do not want to prompt user about mimetype choice.

How can we do it using the existing Elisp API?

Aside: It is not the first time you mention this problem, and I am
wondering how can it be. The full discussion is recorded in the mailing
list archives and possibly available from your MUA from thread view (is
it not?).
