Perhaps by adding the option of an explicit flag when asking for a mimetype 
handler? Explicit as in "Give me only parts who explicitly say to handle the 
given mimetype; suppress those who handle only mimetypes which are in an 
IS-ALSO relation to the given one". In the same way one usually would not 
like to get the text part as fallback if there was no HTML part. Would this 
work for all other part query usages, too?

Implementation left to those who know about the part query system.
