This is the best suggestion made here, so application menus can be refined
for the users benefit:

image/png:
 Application | show in Menu
o gthumb     | [x]
o gqview     | [x]
* eog        | [x]
o display    | [ ]
o gimp       | [x]
o mozilla    | [ ]
o ghex       | [ ]
...

* default app
show/don't show should be toggle buttons

This shouldn't be hard to implement and is also easy for the user.
Apps which are for every filetype (ghex) should be hidden from the menu
by default.

Good idea Gustavo! What does the developers think? I as user would really
appreciate this!!!

Rgds,
