i think the correct solution would have nothing to do with text/html vs
text/plain, but would have to do with whether the message is
multipart/mixed or multipart/alternative.

for multipart/alternative messages, a reasonable MUA will select exactly
one of the alternatives for presentation (possibly allowing the user to
switch to other variants).

for multipart/mixed messages, a reasonable MUA should attempt to render
all parts of the message (though it may choose to avoid rendering parts
marked with Content-Disposition: attachment, making these parts
available to the user for saving locally or rendering, at the user's
option).
