i think what you want are .desktop files... for instance, for your 
"Destination Host" files, something like this should work (or some variation, 
i'm not testing this ;) :

[Desktop Entry]
Comment=Globus Destination Host
Name=Globus: somehost.com
Encoding=UTF-8
Exec=globus --host=somehost.com
Icon=globus

for the graphical viewer/editor you just need to add a Mimetype= entry with 
the proper "mimetype" in your app's .desktop file and then add a 
mimetype .desktop file to the share/mimelnk/ hierarchy ... 

you can evne have these generated for you by using the appropriate KDE GUIs, 
e.g. KDevelop ;-) or kmenueditor and the File Associations dialog...

HTH...
