Package: mozilla-thunderbird Version: 1.0.2-3 Severity: normal When an attachement is of type application/octet-stream, thunderbird figures out what to open it by some means, presumably based on the filename, however the open dialog greys out the "Do this automatically for files like this from now on." Presumably this is since a user wouldn't want to pick a single helper to open ALL application/octet-streams, however it would be useful if the user could still edit what thunderbird does with files of whatever specific type thunderbird settled on. Otherwise, with any file types that the user always recieves as octet-stream, there is no way for the user to specifiy a default handling for those files (very annoying)
