I don't think you can do this because the initial URL interception happens when the browser is processing the URI, before it has a MIME type. If it doesn't find an external activity to handle the raw URI, it will at that point see if it can handle it internally. At that point either it will do so, or only if it can't handle it internally will it start retrieving it (at which point it finds out its MIME type) and if there is an activity that contains that MIME type it will hand it off.
