The current
"external.png" implementation is horribly broken in
languages that are right to left like Farsi, Hebrew, Arabic. So let's
create a "pdf icon" only when the implementation of the external.png is
fixed. Let's not add more garbage in a manner that we know is broken.
however,
it doesn't matter, where that icon actually is (left or right
-- this can be programmable, dependent on the direction of writing).
My point is, do we want this or not ?
How do you want to detect whether an URL points to a PDF-file (i. e. not
something that Internet Exlporer would executeable but is called
"something.pdf")
