           Summary: Provide open with common application inplace dialog
                    for common file types
           Product: kopete
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Debian testing
        OS/Version: unspecified
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kopete-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: kfebert at gmail.com


Version:            (using KDE 4.4.3)
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages

Please provide (a) button offering opening certain well defined program for
common file types received by a data transfer within chat window.

 Reasoning: 
As I assume many people receive pictures as most common data transfer.
Kopete handles this quiet well within ICQ (not Jabber) and offers the user to
download this file. I often face then opening gwenview or other programs to see
this particular picture. Why not placing (next to the download button) within
the chat window a button named gwenview which offers to open this picture
immediatly. 
Recognizing the file type should be easily and with the new framework of KDE4.
I think it would be a pleasure and time saver for many users. Please consider
implementing such a nice detail which could cover more data types than videos
or pictures of course .

 I would be willing to provide a patch if this is considered worthy but lack of
time for the next two weeks and deep knowledge in kopete framework would
acquire some basic help. 

Thanks for your time.

Ferdinand
