Much larger mime_drivers.php files.  You will have to define every MIME
string twice - once in the icons array and once when defining the driver. 
For a driver like the enscript driver (with 30+ MIME types defined), that
is a lot of superfluous definitions.

It would be better to add an option to a driver configuration array that
allows a user to disable the MIME Viewer rendering yet keep the icon
definitions.  However, this will have to wait for Horde 4 because it will
break BC.
