           Summary: file-roller's "open with..." dialog is different than
                    nautilus "open with..."
           Product: Ubuntu
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: file-roller
        AssignedTo: seb128 at ubuntu.com

The application chooser in file-roller is rather unfriendly compared to the one
provided by nautilus.

This is very similar to the firefox problem, reported here:
http://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=18661

It would be nice if all of the "standard" applications could share the same (or
a similar) dialog.

Example: Try to open a file with a non-default application in nautilus.
   - view properties
   - view open with...
   - click "add"
   - select from the list of human-friendly application titles and icons

Try to open a file with a non-default application in file-roller:
   - (user is presented with a totally different interface)
   - select "open files..."
   - figure out the full path to the application and copy/paste it into the
Application textbox.
