Filetype associations need icons.

Details
Currently (0.9.9) Moz does not explicitely associate icons to file types that it
handles. The result is that the shell assigns the default Moz binary icon.
The file type association groups -
a) images, eg .png,
b) "protocol", eg .html
should have unique icons (and ones other than that used for the binary).
For example,
- the IE binary has the stylized 'e' icon.
- the IE "protocol" file types icon is a "sheet of paper" with a mini 'e'.
- the IE image file types icon is a "sheet of paper" with a picture frame
in it - see .JFIF and .JFE which are incidentally also jpeg file
types, but are not reassigned to Moz.
The "sheet of paper" metaphor to describe a file is actually quite good -
every Windows/Mac user knows what a 'folder' looks like, and everyone knows
what a folder contains.
(And no, folders do not contain dinosaur heads or inkblots that are
supposed to be seamonkeys :)
