I've taken your suggestion and improved on it like so:

"This package enables you to associate file name patterns with external
applications that are automatically invoked when you use commands like
@code{find-file}.  For example, you can have it open @code{png} files with
@code{feh} and @code{mp4} files with @code{mpv}.  This is especially useful
when browsing files with Dired."

Updated patch is attached, thanks again!

David
