<CIA-94> Bernhard Beschow master * rv4.7.95-582-g2c459fb src/ (15 files in 9
dirs)
<CIA-94> API change: ParseRunnerPlugin: remove guiString(), introduce
fileFormatDescription() and fileExtensions()
<CIA-94> The pure virtual method guiString() wasn't used in Marble and was only
there for historical reasons.
<CIA-94> The new pure virtual methods fileFormatDescription() and
fileExtensions() represent metadata which can be used for automatic filter
creation in a file open dialog.
<CIA-94> That way, the file open dialog could offer all available file formats,
depending on which plugins are installed.

<Earthwings> shentey: while you're at it, what about preventing to start a
parse runner that does not support the given extension?
<Earthwings> shentey: that'd save some additional thread creation etc cost
<shentey> Earthwings: good idea, could you file a bug report, please? :)
