Comment (by teor):

 In Tor Browser 5.0.3 on OS X 10.10.5, I can't retrieve the length
 `navigator.mimeTypes.length` or list of members `navigator.mimeTypes`.

 But I can query for a member (as TemporaryNick describes).

 Can you try the attached script with `if (navigator.mimeTypes.length > 0)
 {` and the corresponding brace commented out?
