Being able to tell QuickLook how to handle files would make it much easier to create a workaround to the current QuickLook (read: Windows) limitiation / inability to handle files with no extension or an unknown extension.

Research direction

The request targets the QuickLook CLI but names no files or tests. Start by locating the CLI argument parsing and the code that determines how files are handled; done means a filetype or mimetype parameter can direct handling of files with no extension or an unknown extension.
