--- Comment #14 from eisa01 <eisa01 at gmail.com> ---
Ok, so the issue is that LO does not declare icons on the "Imported Type UTIs"
in the Info.plist (and neither on the "Document types")

LO also only declares .docx as imported, .doc is only under Document type under
"3rd party formats"

That means that at minimum "3rd party formats" need to be restructured, as it
mixes e.g., documents and spreadsheets. It would probably be better to add many
of those to the "Imported Type UTIs"

Reading this Stack overflow article [1], it seems like setting the icons on the
Exported/imported UTIs is best practice.

In principle this is something I should be able to fix, but getting up the
build and gerrit environment seems like a momentous task...
