Bug Description

I'm not sure whether this should be a feature request or bug but none the less the option "view as text" is not possible on local/shared files eventhough you have the option present, instead you receive the message "you cannot download from yourself!".

So how about instead of the "function: prevent-self-download" you'd have somethings like simple "associated-application-launch-able/viewable/readable" by the host computer as this way you can stay inside the client to do more things.

For instance lets say some user has a problem with a file i share, he gives me the filename, now instead of opening another window and browsing to it I can check my own list and use the search and view it there- another feature could be that if he posts a magnet-link there'd be like an right click option (this might already exist sorry if ive missed it and being too lazy to check it up) to select somethings like "match file in share" or "search share for matching file" and then instantly have the filelist popup with the file if found otherwise throw a status-message like: file not found in share: %filename.%ext.

ps: DC++ and DiCe!++ supports the viewing of text files as for the rest (ie apps, images etc) I'm not too sure.
