Hi Kostik,

Maybe it would then be a good idea then to add some kind of general
purpose remapping imgact? Example:

/etc/imgacttab:

cafebabe /usr/local/bin/java
cffaedfe /usr/local/bin/osx_emulator
4243c0de /usr/bin/lli

That way we still give people the freedom to play around with mapping
their own executable formats, but don't need to maintain a bunch of
imgacts.
