Sadly no :-/

Not yet, we looked into the failed registering of the plugin and didn't
put enough work in it to find out why it is b0rken. It might be
something silly like this :

-       return("application/x-blender-plugin:blend:Blender 3D content");
+       return("application/x-blender-plugin:blend:Blender 3D content\n");

in source/gameengine/GamePlayer/netscape/src/UnixShell.c

I still hope to create time to dig into it again. Maybe soon, I meet
some old NaN employees tomorrow evening, so who knows ;-)
