Hello,

I run Wine on many different distros (openSUSE, Arch, Ubuntu, and others). On
all of them, after installing Wine it takes over my default mime program
associations for many common things like images and text files. There is no
reason I would ever want to open a text file with Wine's Notepad, and nobody
would ever want to open a JPG or PNG image in Wine's Internet Explorer. Please
remove these useless mime associations, and only leave the sensible ones like
.EXE and .MSI file associations.

Thanks a lot!
