Wouldn't it have been cleaner and more consistent to simply get rid of the
sendto menu and have multiple associations per mime-type?  You could still
have a sendto, I guess, but if you have mime-type associations, it makes
more sense, IMHO, to associate them with programs.  Single click would
then launch the default, right-click or whatever could allow a choice.

Now you have two places that deal with file associations instead of one.
