"priority=3" I suggest is below the "priority=5" of the xdvi entry, so
the xdvi is earlier in the generated /etc/mailcap and so preferred
whenever its "test $DISPLAY" succeeds.  (This "priority" bit is a debian
extra described in the update-mime man page.)

I wondered afterwards if priority=2 might leave more room for flavours
of graphical viewers.  But there's not many dvi viewers.

Yes, just add the line to the file.
