Isn't this pretty much what you get in the Nautilus context menu when
you right click a file?

First the "Open with Foo" for your default application, and then "Open
with Bar", "Open with Baz", etc. for the rest of the recommended
applications.

If you want to change the default applications this is easy to do from
the properties for a the file, which only list the recommended
applications.

There's very little reason to use "Open with other application" unless
you really want something that isn't in the list of recommended
applications, isn't it?
