Build Identifier:
"Open with" should offer my desktop entrys. See Desktop Entry Specification of freedesktop.org. It is not userfriendly that the user must find the location of the executable file.
Reproducible: Always

One giant vote from me for this request. The current selector (I'm using Ubuntu 12.10) is useless, I mean it is one step *backwards* from a shell where I can just type e.g. "gimp" and it finds it for me along $PATH. This dialog doesn't find it for me, and I not only have to know the name of the application, I even have to know in which directory the executable resides in. Utterly useless.
