Description Jean-Michel Lemieux CLA 2002-01-15 10:51:56 EST 
Then importing/adding new files of unkown types by default we are assigning as 
binary. However, what we should do is prompt (default, the user could turn this 
off and default to a certain type) the user if the file type is unknown. The 
shown dialog would allow the user to add file types to the registry then 
add/import using these new types.

We must allow the user to configure file type and keyword type for files from 
within the sync view and also from the current selection.
