the suggested canOpen() function is not too bad.

Bo, I thought again about that, and I do not think I agree with you.
Can you think of a single case where the user has a real windows
application to view a format and this format is not declared in
windows already?
I can think of many such example in windows. Indeed even when you remove
an application, the association of the extension with that application
is not removed. Then when you double-click on a file with that
extension, windows will try to find the application and offer you to
associate it with a manually selected application.
I do not think people should be encouraged to change from within LyX
something that is actually a global windows setting.
I think Bo's patch delegate that to Windows actually (no sure of that).
Abdel.
