Yeah, that is possible and intended. Just write a new format plugin which
registers a objformat with a new object type. We might should specify future
objtypes, to avoid different names of object type - bad example: picture,
image, photo, ...
PS: there is already the object format "file" with the object type "data" ;)
So from your list only object type "email" and "image" is missing...
Also cool would be:
- "bookmark"
- "account" - like keys/passwords/account (e.g. from KWallet, gnome-key-ring)
...
- "email"
- "image"
But i guess you're asking to know if it's worth to handle the number of
available object types dynamic, not static/hardcoded - right? If so you
might still need to map those objtype strings to something human-readable
inside your UI. Like: "contact" -> "Contacts", "event" -> "Appointments", ...
