<p>More serious: I am not sure if users want a full-blown application started instead of the previewer. Even more if this cannot be foreseen when triggering the preview, what actually will happen.<br />
I would rather expect no preview if there is no (wanted) previewer available. And have a dedicated "Open" instead.</p></div>

<p>See the test plan: I wanted to open an excel in some archive, I got hex numbers instead. I think that's not what the average user would expect.</p></div>
</blockquote>
<p>But why not do open the full app for all mimetypes? This seems a bit of a surprise box then. And questions the purpose of the preview mode.</p></div></div><br /><div><strong>REPOSITORY</strong><div><div>R36 Ark</div></div></div><br /><div><strong>REVISION DETAIL</strong><div><a href="https://phabricator.kde.org/D21542">https://phabricator.kde.org/D21542</a></div></div><br /><div><strong>To: </strong>elvisangelaccio, Ark, VDG, rthomsen, kossebau<br /><strong>Cc: </strong>aacid, kde-utils-devel, tctara<br /></div>
