I saw redundancy after sending. I am in favor of separate actions (in
main menu) "Open to edit" and "Open to see" - Preview. The latter would
be basically opening in Konqueror:

Edit <- for all types of files, executables could have Execute (or Open :/)
Preview
Preview in New Window
Preview in New Tab
Cut
Copy
Rename
Delete
Add to Bookmarks
Actions >
Properties

I think there will be obvious difference between Edit and Preview:
Preview in embedded viewer or "light" program without possibility of
changing file. Edit is for making changes in file.

This can apply also to non-image files.

Why "Set encoding" for image???? Maybe it will be useful with SVG files
but for most formats it is useless. I am also not sure if Security is
necessary. Half ot this menu (in current state) is just copied from
http context menu.
