I had looked at think free office, which I know doesnt support ODF but I 
am using it more for the UI look. What I noted is that it displays all 
the directories in ones devices.

I was thinking instead of doing that, When loading it would some how 
index the location of all files and just display all the files that the 
user can open with the program, with icons just as you mentioned to show 
which program will open them.
