[Bug 1223891] Re: Allow click packages to register as mimetype handlers

This doesn't need to (and shouldn't) be done in click itself.  click
already has support for system packages declaring hooks, so some
suitable system package that consumes MIME type declarations could
declare such a hook, and then click packages would be able to attach to
it.

Unfortunately, I don't know where the right package to reassign this to
would be.  Perhaps you could ask around and try to find that out?

Title:
  Allow click packages to register as mimetype handlers

Status in “click” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I could be nice to allow click packages to register as a handler for
  some mimetypes.  This would (presumably) allow the user to open a file
  with the program from the file browser or from the command line with
  xdg-open.  (Issues about apparmor access would probably also need to
  be addressed.)
