Hi, i'm one of the developers of okular[1] a universal document viewer for KDE4. okular is plugin based, that means depending of the installed plugins you may or may not be able of reading PDF files. So hardcoding pdf, ps, dvi, djvu, odt, xps, etc support on the .desktop file will not be a good idea because maybe not all the plugins are installed.
The problem is that the mimetypes an application can read have to be specified in the .desktop file and you can only install one .desktop file per application. The only solution i can see would be that each plugin installs an "application .desktop" file with all the keys exactly as the others and only the mimetype changed and the corresponding Destkop applications (konqueror, kmenu, nautilus, gnome-menu, etc) merged the .desktop files. Do you think that is a good idea that shoudl be added to the spec as an implementation note? If not any suggestion on how to solve this problem?
