Bug Description
Currently there is no visual response if you try to open a file which type is unknown by the system. the "open with > another application" box should be shown.
The workaround is to right-click on the file to manually open this box, but the problem really shows when you use the "open" function of your browser instead of "save / save as".

The problem lies in the method "gof_file_run". Well, technically it's not a problem. It's just that it's not implemented (there's even a "TODO" in that code that talks about this).
