Here is another F11 feature that will become complete enough to warrant testing in the next few days:

The mass rebuild that is currently underway will make sure that the font- and mimehandler-installing packages gain the Provides that are necessary to make this work.
Please give it a try once the mass rebuild lands in rawhide.
Just a note FWIW -- this was a future feature to which I made frequent reference in interviews and other press hoo-ha for the F10 release. It would be great to point to this as part of the F11 press push, and clearly indicate how we deliver on the tech promises made earlier.
Thank you to the Desktop and RPM developers who made this possible! This is an area where the free software desktop shows its stuff as a truly user-friendly environment.
