yes, it's true for desktop area, false if we're into konqy where we could have 
embedded viewer by default (look at - inside konqy)

1) what's our contest? [desktop, konqy area]
if(contest == desktop)

	1-click to open file...
	if(none MIMEtype)
		ask for app to run...

elseif(contest == konqy area)

	LMB: 1-click to open with embedded viewer/editor
	RMB: menu with "Open" to open outside konqy with a default app
	RMB::"Properties" 2 options for select app/select app system wide

Into RMB::Properties any user could select if select every time an app for 
that kind of file format, and select interactive selection for every file 
format (system wide).

A lot of things as you can read. Why don't make an official document to 
collect every comment/proposal and be more detailed?
