But I really think that an extension package is the wrong thing, as the specification defines a PATHNAME presentation type and also the standard views. I couldn't find it stated but the spec surely arranges for presentations methods for the standard presentation types and views. Dialog.lisp actually states: ;;; Hack until more views / dialog gadgets are defined.

Okay, displaying the apt icon depending on the file-extension (pathname-type) works with help of the mime.types file. This should probably be put into an extension. (If the extension is not loaded the default icon (*document-icon* right now) is shown for all pathnames.)

What do you think?
