"yum install mozplugger" is the generic MIME types plugin for Firefox
these days. It defaults to playing embedded audio/midi files via timidity.

That depends on where they look for assignments of MIME types to
applications/plugins. Firefox, for example, receives the MIME type from
the remote web server and passes on the type and file extension to
plugins, which register for that type/ext on startup. How other
applications do it may be different. Desktop applications can register
themselves in the desktop database for MIME types.

That question is too generic.
