[GEM Development] John's desktop (feature request)

Why should a filemanager have knowledge about the contents of a file?
This is the same bad idea which MS had. And every user had his own
idea which files should be displayed. This will increase the number of
filetypes teh Desktop should know.

And how about writeing a fileviewer which can expanded with modules for
new file types?
