Tuomas,

I tried the two small programs that you wrote hildon-mime-summon and 
hildon-mime-summon2 to launch apps by mime type.

 	hildon-mime-summon file:///home/user/PetitPrince.jpg
 	hildon-mime-summon image/jpeg file:///home/user/PetitPrince.jpg

Both launch the Image Viewer allright... but this *first* invocation does 
not display my image -- rather it displays the images in the default 
folder IMAGES.

With the Image Viewer already launched, repeating the above commands *do* 
finally display my images. Is the problem that Image Viewer is hard-wired 
to launch with the images in the IMAGES folder?
