<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face="Courier New"><span style='font-size:
10.0pt'>What I am saying is that the RST driver checks for file extension,
check for the presence of a companion header text file and the content of the
header text file, so I think that if a file is a real RST it will be detected fast
and safely and stop the driver-detection-loop. If we keep RST in the back of
the list, another binary combination could lead to misinterpretation in another
driver.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

formats could still be loaded in a particular order. Something like:<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
