Thanks for the clarification, @evanstade. This may become contentious as it may be that there are certain file types that a web application might never be allowed to handle (e.g., system files)... but this may be a UA-level restriction or os-level.

So, question is: would we allow registering anything? or would it be limited to a few well-known types (which yes, massively restricts the utility of this).
