Re: [PMH] Re: [Nautilus-list] Idea for Nautilus and GMC.



I just thought of something.  Maybe we should have a property in the
mime-type that describes whether this mime-type is safe to be launched
or not.  So we can manually tag things that might introduce a security
risk. 

I still don't see the utility in adding hacks into evolution to
special-case this.  Will the same happen with application/x-rpm?  And
application/x-scripting-language?  I still maintain that having the user
have to manually set the execute bit will at least force them to
actually have to -do- something that will hopefully make them realize
that they either know what they're doing or they don't.  It's such a
small thing that can possibly prevent a large amount of headache.
