Bug Description

When I drag a png file (and other files) from the dash to the launcher, many apps (including firefox) light up but chromium doesn't. As I understand it this is due to the .desktop file for chromium not mentioning png files.

MimeType=text/html;text/xml;application/xhtml_xml;x-scheme-handler/http;x-scheme-handler/https;

Whereas Firefox has:-

MimeType=text/html;text/xml;application/xhtml+xml;application/xml;application/vnd.mozilla.xul+xml;application/rss+xml;application/rdf+xml;image/gif;image/jpeg;image/png;x-scheme-handler/http;x-scheme-handler/https;x-scheme-handler/ftp;x-scheme-handler/chrome;video/webm;
