Something that doesn't understand (or chooses to ignore) "norun" can do so... just as you can write XSLT to process SVG as data without actually rendering it. MIME types e.g. for Unix shell scripts and Perl scripts exist already, and for C code, but I certainly don't want my mail to run arbitrary shell scripts people send me. Identifying content is (and should remain) separate from identifying purpose.
