I'm not familiar with the plans, but I imagine that a mime-handler like
Mozilla's would be great in the Bluetooth File Sharing application. :)
For instance, sending a vCard to the computer makes it display a window
like this:
Would you like to accept <this file> from <bluetooth device name>?
1. Open it with the default application (<perhaps some e-mail client>)
2. Open it with <some application> [Choose...]
3. Save it to disk
[x] Always show this dialog before handling files of this type
Maybe Gnome has something similar built-in?
