I second that. I've tried on several occasions to change what file
associations I have, and either

	(1) the new app doesn't appear on the list
	(2) the new app appears, but only once
	(3) the new app appears on the list, but cannot successfully
		be selected and run
	(4) the new app can run, but it can't be made to be
		the default app
	(5) everything works

Possibility (5) is last on the list for a reason. They are in
order of liklihood. When (2) occurs, (3) also occurs the one
time one gets to try it.

I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!
