<p>
This API can be used to query the applications and components associated with particular MIME types,
and to collect extra information about them, and also provides a convenience function for launching
them.
Applications can register themselves for particular MIME types by adhering to the
<a class="ulink" href="http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/latest" target="_top">
Freedesktop.Org Desktop Entry Specification</a>.

an app that claims to only handle local files for a remote uri.
