So does adding that package mean that you can now augment/change the
mapping between file types and applications?

I've been looking for something to do that for ages. I can't understand why
plain vanilla FF doesn't seem to allow one a way to add/change that mapping
(or indeed, why it just doesn't use the mapping defined by the OS).
