Open with other application dialog: no way to choose an arbitrary app
I'm testing the latest Nautilus nightly flatpak, and I have a PNG that I want to edit with a couple of apps. The problem is that none of those apps appear in the list:
The specific apps I'm looking for are Obfuscate and the GIMP.
This is a bit of a blocker... I really do need to edit that file! I could open the app first and then open the image using the file chooser, but that isn't showing image previews. The only way I was able to open the file was to find it in Files, remember the file name, and then find the corresponding file in the file chooser.
Even apps that have previously edited the same file don't appear in the list - I after editing with Obfuscate, I still can't then open the file with Obfuscate.
Even if we were to do a better job of populating the list for this file type, it still seems like being able to manually use any installed app is an important capability. There will be times when the file associations don't work.
