I'm afraid I don't quite understand you.

There are test functions: `mm-inline-media-tests' in Gnus and the
"test=..." stuff in mailcap.  But I'm not sure if this is useful for
you.

As I understood, you don't know which viewer you want to have
initially, but only when the first one fails.  Instead of `v' you may
also use `t' and make a shortcut for it:

In mailcap:
  application/msword-ooo; OOo %s; nametemplate=%s.doc

(define-key gnus-mime-button-map (kbd "O") ;; some key
  '(lambda ()
     (interactive)
     (gnus-mime-view-part-as-type "application/msword-ooo")))

Bye, Reiner.
