FWIW

I think it might actually be more appropriate for debian package
(although adopted upstream as well), to provide .desktop file which
would define that.  See
https://askubuntu.com/questions/162612/how-can-i-add-an-application-to-the-list-of-open-with-applications

the problem would be that mimetype of .ipynb is not specific enough

$> file --mime  /usr/share/doc/python-statsmodels/examples/notebooks/ols.ipynb         
/usr/share/doc/python-statsmodels/examples/notebooks/ols.ipynb: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

$> file --mime --extension /usr/share/doc/python-statsmodels/examples/notebooks/ols.ipynb
/usr/share/doc/python-statsmodels/examples/notebooks/ols.ipynb: application/octet-stream; charset=us-ascii

and I didn't research if .desktop could also limit by extension...

and found
