Patrik,

Ah, this was was a bad choice of words, instead of
"over" think "instead of". Apologies if this has caused
you any confusion.

Basically, no I would not run DIME over MIME, frankly
I don't see the point, this scenario would only introduce
additional complexity while adding no extra value.

Now you are changing your mind.

Exactly these handwaving things makes it completely impossible to
discuss what DIME should be used for -- if anything.
