Comment (by Eben):
I'm not sure that it does make sense for Etoys to claim support for image
formats. Clearly it supports them as a component of a project, but it's
not a supported file type, just as I wouldn't expect the Write activity to
open a .jpg file. I could embed one, but its not a format that it
''opens''.
Of course, I'm just tossing that out; I'm not well versed in Etoys, and I
know it's highly capable, so perhaps it does make more sense than I think
and my Write comparison isn't the best.

Hello list . I wanted to know if somebody this developing to some
application like this for Etoys. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cFQsT2eQOygI think the WorldStethoscope and SpectrumAnalyzer morphs would to work ok. But, I dont have a XO for testing, just an emulator on my pc. thanksPatricio Acevedowww.educalibre.cl

As we don't have for trial2 the mechanism for letting the user choose
which activity to open the object with, we are choosing arbitrarily one
activity from the available activities that claim support for this mime
type.
Looks like Etoys is being chosen.
If we agree is better for Browse to open when displaying png files, then
Etoys should stop announcing support for pngs for trial2.
Note that this won't affect the capability of Etoys for accepting drops or
pastes of pngs.

... meaning? Do we need to change something in etoys for trial-2 or not?

Yes, but we'll find these issues in trial2: #2543 and #2544.

Old description:

New description:
Should be in /tmp, and should be cleaned up after use.
This is presuming the size of the files is small; remember /tmp is in a
memory based file system.

Comment:
So if I download a PNG and want to start building a project with it in
etoys, it's reasonable to have etoys announce it can open PNGs, right? And
so it does.
Anyway, I prepared a fix (1469resumeFix-bf), will be in Etoys-52 once
that gets made.

I guess my opinion is that if there is a one line class fix, *and* we have
some other big bug that must be fixed requiring a etoys update, fixing
this for Trial-2 is conceivable, otherwise not.
