Hi.

The particular example might be a GIMP bug, but the overall issue is that I 
would like Galeon to have a pop-up menu entry that asks me which application 
I want to send an arbitrary link to - not necessarily an SVG to GIMP: it 
could be that I want to send a .txt link to vi, or that I sometimes want to 
send a .wek link to xfwek and sometimes send it to xwek. Perhaps even - 
horrors - a .html link to my shell script that fires up Internet Explorer in 
Wine.

Thanks,

Tim
