no Newt's Cape changes in past ~2 years.
have you tried View / View Helpers in Newt's Cape? that lists the MIME
types that are supported/installed internally and via various plugins. and
might provide some clues. (one possible problem is that if LaunchPLS is
installing before Newt's Cape, registering a plugin would have to be via
inlined code rather than Newt's Cape's installHelperApp method).
