The bug fix in 1.8 seems to solve the problem with file
paths with spaces in them. However, it looks like we
need a more flexible solution.

Not all apps will take a URI as a file name, some
require an absolute path. So would it be possible to
add another flag to the configuration file so that
users can associate a preferred use?

I.e.:

<launch_programs>
<file_extension>
<extension>
lsm
</extension>

<launch>
tracker
</launch>

<method>
options could be: {PATH | URI }
</method>
</file_extension>
</launch_programs>

In addition there is still a need for extra command
line flags to be passed to the application, i.e.:

iexplore /nohome "c:\my files\hello.jpg"
