Hiya :)

Yeah... the idea was roughly that this should provide options in previewing
too. It would be nice to do a 'Single click runs, held click drops options'
set of buttons for editing, etc. Effectively an open-with on lmb hold, or a
simple open if clicked. Like a browser back button.

I'll mock-up a few text/html preview versions tonight, along with a
multi-pane one.
