Summary: Open With dialog missing some options
Product: kdelibs
Version: unspecified
Platform: Fedora RPMs
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
AssignedTo: kdelibs-bugs kde org
ReportedBy: MathStuf gmail com
Version: (using KDE 4.0.4)
Installed from: Fedora RPMs
OS: Linux
The open with dialog in KDE does not offer much flexibility. It asks to either save, open with a known program or cancel. The user cannot choose a different app to open with or to tell the application to not bother with the file. It most commonly happens with Konqueror with SWF objects (no flash plugin) which asks me to save, open with VLC (I'd rather Kaffeine if I would open it, but I can't choose that if I'd like), or cancel. If I mark "don't ask me again", I can't confirm the dialog to actually not show it again without doing something (save or open) since choosing cancel ignores the checkbox.
