if you want to treat things differently you'd need sth. more advanced
that inspects path or content and runs a special app in case. -> bash
script + service file or write sth. with a nifty config gui.
Let me stress that this is _not_ an issue restricted to the device
notifier, and the fix does not belong there.
I didn't mean to suggest that.
What i wanted to say is that the task of "smart selection" goes beyond the
concept of mime types.
In doubt you want a "smart" tool that inspects the directory (is it a
mounted mountpoint; do we know the mounted device; what's the content, eg.
is there a DCIM folder - stuff like that) and bind it as default
inode/directory service.
What we need to do in the device notifier (and in krunner) is to open a
path using the default file manager;
s/path/directoy/
that is, we need to trust that the default association for folders is
something sensible or
yes.
alternatively, have somebody else tell us which is the default file
manager.
no - that would just introduce a second config for the same task + you'd
still have to standardize it.
You want to open directories with the default mime handler just as images
or an mp3, that's why they're there.
If someone sets an "rm -rf $1" script as default directory handler, that's
actually his problem - you can't fix stupidity.
