A screenshot of the current GUI for `#c0`.

SUMMARY
-------

In Windows, `ms-settings:defaultapps` allows you to change the default associations for URI schemas (like `vscode:`) in addition to file extensions.

In contrast, `kcmshell6 kcm_filetypes` solely appears to be capable of setting them for (custom) IANA Media Type-representations of file extensions.

Makes sense, yeah. We could expose all the other ones here too somehow.

Forward-duping to Bug 506721 because it's phrased a bit more straightforwardly.
