Comment:

 I think adding this feature to the current datastore is going to be too
 risky stability wise. Tomeu rewrite has it, but integrating it would mean
 to also ship a reimplementation of the usb sticks UI too.

 Sayamindu has a patch to browse to open pdf inline, which would work
 around that case. That's by far the less risky approach, is it enough?
