I mostly agree but such a general task is for after the release.

However, now I fixed an omission in dired-x.el to use exactly
the same functions as were implemented for dired-aux.el
(using read-shell-command instead of read-from-minibuffer and
correctly setting minibuffer-default-add-dired-shell-commands
in dired-read-shell-command).  This causes MIME commands to be
automatically added after guess-shell commands.  So currently
Dired-x users can be more happy because they have both command sets.
