Sure, thats a bug, but what if audacious wasn't installed? How would
a user know what to install?
Would be nice if a user tried to open a file that didn't have an
application associated with it and up popped a list of applications
that could be installed. Would be even cooler if the you could select
one to install, it installed, then opened it up for you.
It would be cool if we could autoextract mime handling information from
desktop files installed in /usr/share/applications and generate
"mime(application/pdf)" style rpm provides.
