Bug ID: 513974
Summary: Allow setting superclasses of file types
Classification: Applications
Product: systemsettings
Version First 6.5.4
Reported In:
Platform: Arch Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: kcm_filetypes

Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Ark consults the superclasses of MIME types to see if it can handle a file
type.
This means that to make a custom MIME type work with Ark, one has to
1. edit it in `~/.local/share/mime/packages/`
2. run `~/.local/share/mime/packages/`
Not too bad, but hard to figure out!
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a custom MIME type for e.g. Python `*.whl` files (a subtype of
`application/zip`)
2. Try to open it with Ark and see it fail
OBSERVED RESULT
No UI to add `<sub-class-of type="..."/>`
EXPECTED RESULT
UI that allows to make a custom MIME type work with Ark
